CURRENT MISSION

My goal is happiness.

ABOUT ME

I'm a graduate of University of St. Thomas with double major in English and Philosophy. I really enjoy the color green in all shades. I like to write short stories but I don't often care to share them. I'm in love with the song "Jesus, Etc." by Wilco. I tend to say or do shocking things to see the end result. I'm a bit of a smart-ass, as I've been told many times, so take most things I say as tongue in cheek.

PHILOSOPHY

Life is absurd. Everything that is is good. The only thing we can be sure of is that we die, and all men desire happiness. This gives us an incredible amount of freedom. Freedom is the most important thing to me.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I really want to host people. I've done my share of couch surfing so I understand what it takes to make sure my guest is comfortable. I'm pretty laid back as long as you don't try to proselytize me. I find humor in a lot of things. I have had a few travelers couch surf over the years, although not through CS.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I used to couch surf in Europe, and I love the concept. I have a great couch and a hookah we can smoke.
