CURRENT MISSION

Experience the World! See what God has created.

ABOUT ME

I love to hear people's stories... Life, Travels, God, Adventure...

Life is so good.

I've been in Chicago for the last 4 years, studying and enjoying the city life. I can't wait to travel more!

PHILOSOPHY

Don't follow me. Follow Jesus.

Live it up! I want to finish the race knowing that I have nothing left to give. That it's all on the road behind me.

Bring me that Horizon.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Host, Surf, Spread the Word

I recently completed a 9 month bicycle trip from Ushuaia Argentina to Lima, Peru with 3 of my best friends, and finished it by traveling solo through Bolivia, Brazil, and Paraguay with a backpack.

My friend said, "I never know what's going to happen when I'm with you." I am honored by that.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Best: I was biking around America during Christmas and was really lonely, freezing, hungry, and downtrodden. This old couple noticed my eyes full of tears of self-pity and took me in for Christmas. It was a life-altering experience.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

When I was in Antartica, we were floating on a raft near some blue icebergs, and this huge gray humpback whale breeched ~50 yards away!

Lived on an island with no food for a week.

Teach, Learn, Share

I remember being complimented by an older man I respected. He said, "That is the sign of a good man," to me when I was very young, complimenting something I had done. It meant so much more for him to say that, assuring me I would be a good man, than for him to just say, "Good job for doing that thing." He complimented Me, not my action. It had a great impact on my life.
