About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To explore the places where man does not belong

ABOUT ME

I am a lover of the outdoors and try and live life as one great big adventure. I am beginning a career in the US Army and maybe more excited than I have ever been in my life. Apart from flying I also have a passion for brewing and enjoying good beer. The real goal is to end up opening a brewery.

PHILOSOPHY

Life is an adventure and every day is an opportunity to valuable to pass up.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I am new to the CouchSurfing community, but I've been a lot of my free time in life crashing on my friend's and family's couches throughout the country and loved every minute of it.

Music, Movies, and Books

Books: I absolutely love Science Fiction books particularly the works of Robert Jordan, David Weber, John Ringo and Orson Scott Card among many others. I also read a lot of works about political science, but for the time being most of those are less than enjoyable. Its a rare day though to find me without a book of some mind nearby.

Teach, Learn, Share
