CURRENT MISSION Writing a book about my travels ABOUT ME I have traveled a good chunk of the world. I spent much of my life in New Jersey, but I ventured off to China in 2007 as part of work for an economic consulting firm. I taught and lived in Saudi Arabia in 2009, and then in Doha, Qatar in 2010-2011, and now I'm back in Freehold at this moment. This year, I traveled around India for five months. Now I'm back in Freehold, NJ. Now I am traveling throughout India in 2012! This summer, I'm going to take all of my experiences from these three distinct periods of travel and publish my book. PHILOSOPHY It is so easy to resign yourself to whatever circumstances one finds oneself. Although Americans like to think of themselves as rugged individualists, the overall culture teaches us to settle for what we have. You have to make your own way in this world. Only by doing this can you one day be in service to others.

Warum ich auf Couchsurfing bin
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING I enjoyed sharing my living space in Freehold a few times, and Couchsurfing has been a great way to meet people so far where I've traveled.
Musik, Filme und Bücher
Music: got 12,000 tracks, which I'd be happy to share with fellow couchsurfers. I am a fledging DJ and a big fan of electronica. Books:I'm a big non-fiction guy, but I strive to read a couple of fiction books per year. I'm writing a book right now, so the amount of things i want to read are infinite. Movies: Too many
Eine tolle Sache, die ich getan habe
My most remarkable experiences have been traveling through all of China and now living in Saudi Arabia. I interacted with big shots at a conference in Hong Kong, interacted with Chinese who never saw a foreigner in their lives, went to the town with the highest elevation in the world, DJ'd at a club in Ulan Baotr, Mongolia and saw some of the most beautiful scenery on the planet. Now I am in a culture cut off from traditional tourism. To be living in Saudi Arabia has been a valuable experience financially and personally.
