About Me

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Had a great time couchsurfing in Belize, most notably sleeping in a treehouse.

Interests

Anything that has to do with the outdoors is interesting, the wilderness is my religion.

Exploring new places and having new adventures.

Music - it soothes the savage beast.

I look forward to meeting new people and hearing their stories.
