About Me

CURRENT MISSION

My mission is to expand my mind, consiousness and love to encompass all of humanity and existence. I want to continue learning and growing always.

ABOUT ME:
Just started using CS again after a long break (and a recovered password).
My lovely lady, Rachel, and I are currently traveling around Europe! We're both teachers in Taiwan, taking a few months off to visit family and friends and see the world! We've got two backpacks, a guitar, and a whole lotta love.

I'd love to find out what you think! I've spent many a night talking about the mysteries of the universe only to find the hours have flown by. I graduated in 2010 studying psychology and philosophy at Towson University in Baltimore, Maryland, USA, with the hopes of developing a greater understanding of life and the
many mysteries of the human mind. I was especially interested in evolutionary and physiological psychology and existentialism. I've been living in Taiwan for four years now, teaching English, playing music, and living the good life with beautiful people. I'd love to share!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

When we're living in one place CS is a great way to stay in touch with the world traveling community. When we're traveling CS is the best way to meet people and get to know a place. Either way we've made some great friendships to last a lifetime.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Couchsurfing is an awesome way to meet awesome people. I love being with crazy fun locals instead of being in a hotel. Increase the global sharing community!
