About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To improve my surfing and rock climbing skills and enjoy the pure life!

PHILOSOPHY

My personal philosophy on life....is to surround myself with people that I genuinely want in my life...life is short and the amount of amazing people out there is abundant so why not find as many amazing people to touch and have an amazing life?

I'd like to love on everybody I meet. Regardless of race, creed, situation, or religion...I would genuinely like to love on them. Regardless of the amount. You have no idea how many people appreciate that...at a random point in their life...a point of contact with a touch of love...can make all the difference.

I live life to become the best person that I can be...not to become a saint, but just to be genuine with life. No BS and no underlying intentions.

Like I said before...I am an avid believer of Karma...you get what you give. And there's nothing better to it than that. I've experienced it first hand and I cannot begin to tell you how fulfilling life is when you spread you're great qualities to people who need it ;)

I'm also a huge nut about having a great sense of humor with life....the Dalai Lama has an awesome sense of humor and you know...it rubs off on the people around him...He's going through one of the most one-sided scenarios in our day and age...and you know what...he still smiles and is able to laugh ;) And I find that...amazing ;) A fantastic inspiration :)

Last but not least...I'm going to live this life the way I want to...I'm going to do it my way...and make sure in the end....I did right by me ;)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

The couchsurfing idea is genius! I've let people couchsurf with me in Hawai'i and in Yellowstone and I've also couchsurfed all over Puerto Rico for a month and a half and it's just phenomenal. The amount of great souls you meet are just overwhelming sometimes :)

Interests

Hiking, rock climbing, bodysurfing, surfing, kayaking, well...just being in the ocean period, trying new things all the time, having fun, and most of all....appreciating life ;)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Hiking all the way to the top of Mount Kilimanjaro. After getting sick at 17,500 feet and pushing on until the very top, I definitely shed a few tears once I hit the summit. One of the toughest trials and most rewarding experiences of my life. Incredible and unforgettable :)
