Why I'm on Couchsurfing
on this monster roadtrip, i am always thankful for friends & allies. i'll be seeing so many places i've never been. if it's your home, show me around! i'll buy you a beer :) i'll be traveling solo & am always thankful for a shower/couch to sleep on for a night or two :) i prefer to park my bike with someone if i'm gonna go into the national parks for several days at a time. maybe your garage? :) i'm super nomadic in this season of life, but as soon as i settle, wherever i do, i've got an air mattress for ya :)
Music, Movies, and Books
