More often than not, the best part of being somewhere is getting there. the journey is the sweetest thing. CURRENT MISSION To be bold and go forth ABOUT ME I began my journey in 2007 and before then I was just a city boy. The first time I looked into the Grand Canyon everything changed. Now cities bore me. I want to see mountains Gandalf! : Work wise, I was in fashion, but hated it, so I did some plumbing, carpentry, landscaping, acting, and other stuff. Now i own an online and wholesale company that will later fund a hostel group I plan to open. I just think its important to explore you as well as the world. PHILOSOPHY I am the least important person in my circle. I am there for others more than myself. I strive to help people before they need help, and do things for which I receive no credit.

Why I'm on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING I have used this in the past for advise and to offer advise as well as for a place to stay COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE Have spent many nights on the road meeting new people, sharing a floor, a couch, a spare bed...
Music, Movies, and Books
Not big on books but huge on movies. My library is extensive and varied. Music can be described in the same way, but not a fan of metal, hip hop, electro, etc
One Amazing Thing I've Done
Too many and too various, but again, seeing the Grand Canyon for the first time completely changed my life.
Teach, Learn, Share
I believe learning should be a personal thing where it can be. Its one thing to read a book or something online. To see someone's face as they explain something passionately or see the reaction....that's the real lesson.
My Interests
Travel, music, sport, movies, food, and beer :)
