CURRENT MISSION

Explore this strange flat place called Lubbock :)

ABOUT ME

Just moved to Lubbock from Salt Lake City, Utah. I used to be a ski bum I grew up a little bit and decided to go get my Masters here at Tech. I spend most of my time studying and grading papers. I will be here for two years, so far it isn't too bad just a little flat here.
School is my #1 priority, sometimes I get overwhelmed with school work and cannot host.

PHILOSOPHY

I believe in Karma, and I'll try anything at least once. I am very open minded and nonjudgmental. I try to embrace everyone and their culture. However I have no tolerance for ignorance and stupidity.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I love hosting people, or just hanging out with people who are visiting Lubbock or Salt Lake, I also surf. I'll be surfing in Chicago soon. I am very active in the SLC group, and starting to get involved in the Lubbock group.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have hosted and surfed quite a few times I also just love to meet up with surfers in the area and show them around. I have made so many great friends through couch surfing. I am very active in the local CS community and attend as many events and such as much as I can. I like to ask my surfers to leave a little note or artwork for my fridge (this is an idea a stole from my friend Zak).

Interests

Skiing, really anything outside (climbing, hiking, biking etc) All kinds music and playing music, Belly Dancing, good food and good drinks. I recently got my motorcycle license, I love riding my dirt bike.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Shark fishing in New Zealand, we tied up some rope to the boat and caught our dinner.

Soccer game in Cuenca Ecuador was awesome so much fun watching a game with the locals.

I see amazing things everyday at my job, I spend the day at the top of a mountain with a view of over 60 miles.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can show you some Belly dancing moves, and how to play a variety of musical instruments including the trumpet, didgeridoo, and drums.
I am new to Lubbock and I would love to explore the town with people.
