About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Chasing an unconventioanl existence

ABOUT ME

Living in Southern California now, but I've called Florida home for most of my life.

My wife and I live in Orange County and would like to host when our schedules allow for it - which unfortunately isn't often due to our travel schedules. I love this part of the world, but if I sit still for too long, I start to get restless. We are pretty active, biking (mountain and road), hiking, surfing, scuba diving, snowboarding, road trips, concerts, good food, good alcohol and trying new things.

PHILOSOPHY

"It is not the critic who counts, not the one who points out how the strong man stumbled or how the doer of deeds might have done better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred with sweat and dust and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs and comes short again and again; who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions, and spends himself in a worthy cause; who, if he wins, knows the triumph of high achievement; and who, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who know neither victory or defeat."

"I believe in luck, but luck doesn't just happen. You have to work at it."

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I've surfed a couple times, hosted a few more. Hope to do more of each and introduce my girlfriend Denise to couchsurfing. Always up to recommend places to go, things to do if I can't host. Would be happy to meet up with people, even if I can't host, when time allows for that.
