CURRENT MISSION

let's build a community around the principles of solidarity

ABOUT ME

I am an extremely laid back guy. I love meeting people and like to consider myself a pretty sociable and likable guy. I am 20 yrs old and still see hope in creating the changes needed in the world. Innovations like this site and others like kiva.org (check this out if you dont know kiva) prove there are countless individuals who want to help others without the purpose of making money. I go to school at UC Santa Cruz and study environmental studies, focusing on finding alternatives to global capitalism and on methods of sustainable agriculture/ sustainable and EQUITABLE food system.

PHILOSOPHY

respect. If an entity is respected, all other philosophies can ensue.

Warum ich bei Couchsurfing bin

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I am brand new to this website, but only because i just found it. I love any sort of service that allows people to come together over a common cause or interest. I will open my couch in santa cruz to any travelers who happen to be passing thru.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I always have people crashing on my couch, but they have never been from a website. They are usually people i meet randomly or friends of friends, etc. I look forward to broadening my horizons.

Eine tolle Erfahrung, die ich gemacht habe

i have saved two lives in my short time, which i think is pretty cool. When i was 16, I was also the passenger in a car that rolled going 120 Mph, which changed my perspective on life majorly... give thanks for every day
