The urge to travel has constantly been an itch that I have tried my best to scratch but recently I have discovered that I have been infected with the wanderlust. So I've decided to stop fighting it and just give in. I plan on traveling from Colorado and up the west coast with a few friends. Were all young artist and dreamers but we don't possess a lot of money. We do possess a lot of love and faith in other human beings. We want to couch surf not only because it is economical but because we want to meet new people and form new friendships.

My musical/life role model Amanda Palmer just wrote a book "The Art of Asking" that I love! I think it really embodies the ideas behind couch surfing of building trust and mutually beneficial relationships with others. It's an amazing book and I recommend it to everyone!
