ABOUT ME

John Meacham | Create your badge
I was born and raised in Florida. I have English, Belgium, and Irish background. Joined the military after highschool, and was in for 4 years. Moved back to Florida after I got out. I love meeting new people, however I am a bit shy. I am getting better at talking to new people but most of the time is takes me a few minutes to warm up to people. However dont expect me to jump up and start doing karaoke. I do like to go out for drinks, but I am a non-smoker. I like hiking, sleeping in tents, climbing stuff, swimming, diving, off roading, and a variety of other things. Think I wont like it, try me. I eat anything, and I would love to try some new types of food. I love taking pictures, so if I ever am doing it too much stop me. If you dont want your picture taken tell me. I also like dancing, but I have never been very good at it, and when I do it, it usually involves alot of liquor. If you think you can teach me, I would love to learn something new! I love the night. I am a bit crazy, but in a good way. The craziest thing about me is the fact that I have a special thing that I bring everywhere I go. If you want to know what it is, go ahead and ask and I will show it to you when we meet. Dont worry, I am not a creep. You can go on Facebook and ask any of my friends if you would like. I like keeping in contact with all my friends, so if I couch with you, don't be surprised if I send you random messages saying just hi! If you are in my town and you wish to grab a drink or something, go ahead and text me! 727-278-5911! Texting is best because I am always in places where I am not able to answer the phone!

PHILOSOPHY

Live life like you want. Be free! Try and help others on the way. All else fails, SMILE!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Well I hope to do some travelling soon, possibly staying on a couch or two, or three. I would also like just to meet as many people for a drink or dinner as I can, just to hear some stories about wherever I currently am. However I have never been much of a talker so don't be weirded out that you are doing most of the talking.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Ive never couch surfed, but I have met some awesome people just for drinks!

Interests

Traveling, meeting new people, experiencing new cultures, learning how to respect other cultures, trying new food, music, watching shows, watching people dance, off roading, biking, boating, walking, running, jumping from planes, scary movies, night, not knowing where I am, going places few have been, making people smile, going fast, taking it easy, doing what I can, doing what I can't, getting into trouble, getting out of trouble!

Music, Movies, and Books

I enjoy all types of music. My favorite is probably rock, but you would be surprised of everything I actually listen to. Wait until you see my Ipod! Some favs are Sublime, Pearl Jam, Bush, Audioslave, Flogging Molly, Rammestein, Metallica, Cruxshadows, and many, many more! I mosly like scary movies. I love Vampire movies. Lost Boys in one of my favs. Also all of the Saw movies. Books, well that is mostly travel books, but if you have any other suggestions I would be happy to try anything out. However, most of the time reading puts me to sleep.
