About Me

I'm easy going, but yet hard working and adventitious. I love experiencing new things and living life to the fullest. I love to learn new thing. I'd consider my self a bit of an introvert, but every time I get out of my shell I seem to enjoy it, so I do my best to do it as much as possible.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm completely new to couch surfing, but it seams like a great idea and I can't wait to get started. I would like to meat new people, and experience life from different perspectives. Also it seems like a fun and affordable way of traveling.

Interests

I have too many interest to effectively cover in this small text box, but one obvious one is Travel. I also am passionate about software development, and anything creative or innovative. I also love new ideas whether that be philosophical, scientific, or creative. I also am a bit of an outdoors person in my free time. I love going on hikes, bike rides, camping, and offloading trips.

Music, Movies, and Books

Books:
I love classics. My favorite author is John Steinbeck, but I love anything from Chaucer to Dostoevsky to Hemingway to P.G. Wodehouse. I'm not closed to more contemporary works, but what I've read that's been contemporary has not been all that good, so instead of wasting my time trying to find the next classic, I prefer for others to do that for me.

Music:
I love most forms of music. My taste is pretty broad, but I especially like music that is unique, such as Radio Head, Sigur Ros, Modest Mouse, etc.. My taste though is as wide as Metal, to Classical, does not really matter to me. I do dislike most Pop and R&B and Country, not to say there are not exceptions, but for the most part those genera I'm not a huge fan of.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I petted a cheetah in South Afraca.
