PHILOSOPHY

Love people for who they are and what the believe independently! Have faith and believe in something regardless of what it is. Treat everyone with respect and try to positively influence someones life every day! Live in the moment and have no regrets, for the life you have made for yourself makes you who you are!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I am fairly active in my home town group and prefer CS as a way to a new and exciting future with lots of traveling. In the summer of 2012 I finished backpacking across Europe for 72 days with my best friend Simon. We stayed with several CSers all over the place and went to several CSing meetings and events! 28 cities and 8 countries!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have been all over Europe and the United states and I have had nothing but positive and amazing experiences through CSing and I try my best to pass it on as much as possible!

Music, Movies, and Books

Love travel books and biography's of architects. Love all kinds of movies depending on my current mood. Love sci-fi thrillers and comedies! I love how i met your mother, it is fantastic!! The music I like is all over the place. My main thing is to experience as many live concerts as possible. I have seen Lindsay Sterling, London Grammar, and Imagine Dragons recently.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I have worked at every job you can think from captain on the fire department and paramedic to managing landscape on one of the biggest ranches in the plains. I have fished for sharks in the Florida Keys and gambled in Las Vegas, Nevada! Hiking in the Italian Alps and swimming in Castiglioni!

Teach, Learn, Share

I love meeting and learning from people who do things I have never heard of!! I want to learn about new things!! I can share the many experiences I have had in my short life!
