About Me

CURRENT MISSION
Givin' home a chance...

ABOUT ME
I'm an enthusiast. Whatever I'm doing or planning at the moment I'm stoked on and ALWAYS make it happen. I'm a part-time dog trainer,full time student. When Im not busy at school or on some road trip I usually hang with my dogs or just hang out with friends. When I go out its usually a show, I like all types of music but mostly punk and hardcore. I love snowboarding, and it's cool to see the mountains wherever I go- they all have their own character. I love animals of any species. I'm fairly well versed on food and wine. I don't smoke, drink, or use drugs anymore. I love to meet some people around the world that I can relate to. I think I'm pretty easy to get along with, my flatmates like me and so do my friends! So let me stay at your house, ok?

PHILOSOPHY
Wherever you go, there you are.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Surfed a few, hosted a few. I think its best to experience both sides. Hosting can be a lot of fun, and its best to know what its like for those hosting you. Ive learned to be a better host through being hosted by others.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Over the years it has become a big part of my life. The reason, as with anything else, is that you get out of something what you put into it. I kept getting so much out of this, so I kept putting more and more in. It's become this amazing thing I will never let go of. I've now traveled around fifty different countries, and Couchsurfing is both the reason I was able to do it, and the main reason that I wanted to do it.
