CURRENT MISSION

training and preparing for our transamerican trip

ABOUT ME

We both had long hair and skateboards when we met which was common ground enough to start a lifelong friendship. Going through the good and bad times, most of which have been self inflicted, has made us more like brothers than friends.
Matt is the engine/brainchild behind this transamerican endeavor and Peter is the throttle. Each of us plays a vital role in getting this trip off the ground.

PHILOSOPHY

" Life is not a journey to the grave with the intention to arrive safely in a pretty and well-preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming: Wow!! What a ride!" - a running buddy of Dean Karnazes

- Do not pray for God to take away your trials. Instead, pray for the strength to endure them.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Our couch is open. We are hoping to meet other couchsurfers, especially with our upcoming trip.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Peter has enjoyed the benefits of CS2 over a year ago while backpacking around Europe.

兴趣

Matt- Cycling, learning (in school and in life), history (because today can be explained by looking back on past events), relationships with family and friends. I love to travel though I dont get to do as much of it as I would like. I have been to many overseas countries and met really awesome people.

Peter - Enjoys photography and will be driving Matt to insanity from his incessant 'Photo Opps' along the road. In his teen years he was infected by a desire to travel. He has since seen many places and continues to scope out the terrain. Bicycling everywhere because cars are overrated. Cloves and hookah, although these things have been temporarily disabled to enhance his lung capacity and overall wellbeing. Speeding tickets, Life, Truth, Friends and Relationship.
