About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To put my guest bedroom to good use and to keep exploring the world.

ABOUT ME

I'm a 37 year old guy in Salt Lake City. I've lived along the wasatch front here in utah since 2000 and I really like where I am. I grew up all over the midwest...Omaha, Des Moines, Detroit; went to high school in Rapid City, South Dakota. I ski at Snowbird during the winters and like to bike and backpack all other seasons. I'm kind of obsessed with the Pacific Northwest right now, and will never get enough of the american southwest. I grew up very land-locked so i'm especially fond of visiting coastal cities.

PHILOSOPHY

Survive the best you can. For me, this involves a level of commitment to unselfishness and trust in others. I like to trust and I've learned how to be smart about it. That's the part that applies most to couchsurfing.
Also, I try to be a little better today than I was yesterday. I like to be a good teammate and I try to improve the conditions around me for myself and others.

Music, Movies, and Books

I like all the "old" movies that any child of the 90's might like.
I like learning about anything but I don't get into much fiction other than the classics.
I like all kinds of music, including country music before the 90's. I like old school funk, delta blues, big band jazz, afro-cuban jazz, etc.
