About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Putting thought to pen and planning the next adventure.

ABOUT ME

I'm a 29 year old guy who loves to travel, meet new people, and dreams about going to space (lightsabers are optional). I've lived in two different countries for most of my life, though I've been to a few others for different reasons. I'm easy going, random, and a huge fan of whimsical things. I believe that postcards are perhaps one of the most endearing ways of keeping in touch with people, and that urinal rules ARE universal. Gravity, alliteration and positive thinking are all things I find incredibly powerful. If there's anything more specific you'd like to know shoot me a message.

Take care, fellow travelers!

PHILOSOPHY

Here are a few philosophies which I beleive in:

"Behind all this, some great happiness is hiding."
"Platonic is the new black."
"If you love until it hurts, then there's no more hurt only love."
"Keep your head held high, but be careful where you point your nose."
"Do unto others, as you'd like done unto you."
"Free Hugs Given Here!!!"
"I try anything once, more times if I like it."
Which is closely followed by,
"I NEVER try anything that involves animals and lubricants."

And just smile, people, cause it'll be the most good you do without ever knowing it.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Currently, I can't really host but I'm more than happy to show people the wild side of Shippensburg- the growing metropolis of South Central PA. Coffee, drinks, hell I'll even through a couple of meals, as long as I'm in town and not traveling myself.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

So far, it has been limited to one very cool weekend in New York City, and a life changing road trip across the continental US. I can't say enough how much CouchSurfing has inspired me and renewed my hope in huminaty.

That being said... I think I need to go now and leave some reviews.

Interests

Truthfully? Interesting things. Be they books, people, food, places, social activities that may or may not include running from frantic animals. My interest are mostly about things that in the end make life fuller- however that happens.

I'm very into books, writing, photography, camping, hiking, outdoor activities, backpacking, movies, comic books, nature, animals, driving with the windows down and listening to music, cold drinks in the winter, hot tea in the summer, sushi, and many other things.
