CURRENT MISSION

I am always looking for new places to explore. I am a curious person and love to experience new places and meet new people.

ABOUT ME

I am a non-smoker, non-drug user, single gay male living in Philadelphia, PA. My dream is to move out of the United States and live a much simpler life. I am originally from the Midwest and moved to Philly in 2007. I love city living. I also really like to meet new people and travel all over the world. I really want to visit every country. So far I have been to over 50 countries.

I have a lot of hobbies which keep me quite busy. One is I contribute to a blog on http://www.spottedbylocals.com/philadelphia/. Others include reviewing restaurants, hotels, spas, and other random places. I like to stay busy.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have hosted and been hosted by some great people from this site. I have even just met a few for sightseeing. I have enjoyed getting to know people from all over the world and can't wait till our paths cross again.

Interests

Traveling around the world is my biggest passion. I am a citizen of the world. I spend a lot of my time looking for cheap airfare and seeing where I can go next. Unfortunately my job gets in the way more than I would like. I try to take a trip once a month.

Music, Movies, and Books

I like most all music and movies. I read mostly biographies. I find inspiration in other peoples stories to help me live a better life. I am an easy going guy that can find entertainment in most anything. I never turn any idea down because to me, I will either have a great time or a great story so either way I win.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Some of my favorite moments have been walking around the medina in Marrakech, zip lining through the rain forest in Costa Rica, and four wheeling around the islands of Greece. I have also hiked the Great Wall in China and went swimming with great white sharks. I tend to look for adventure wherever I go. I think my all time favorite that made me feel like I could conquer the world was hiking Wadi Mujib in Jordan.
