About Me

CURRENT MISSION

My goal is to see as much of the world as I can in my lifetime and to capture it with my photography in order to share it with others.

ABOUT ME

I am a photographer who likes to enjoy all the simple things in life. I have dealt with some medical issues in my life that have helped me appreciate all that is out in this world. I love music and playing the guitar.
Traveling is a must for me because I love to see new places and meet new people everywhere I go. I believe that we all have a story to tell and I would like to share mine and hear about you.

PHILOSOPHY

My personal philosophy is to live life while you have life. Get out and see the world.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I have stayed with several hosts already in the last year or so and the experiences have all been great. I suspect I will be the one surfing more often than hosting as I travel a lot, but am definitely willing to offer up a place to stay if I can.

I am new to this but from what I have gathered so far I am going to enjoy the experiences I gain from couch surfing.

I don't read much because usually music takes up most of my time that I am not traveling.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I am 30 years old and have visited all but 4 of the states in the U.S. I have survived 4 open heart surgeries, had 2 knee surgeries, and several surgeries in my throat, including having a treachiotomy for 4 months. I also have had diabetes for 15 years. I travel as often as I can and always try to have my camera at my side.

I enjoy meeting and learning from anyone.
