About Me

CURRENT MISSION

to be able to sustain my lifestyle from a sailboat

ABOUT ME

I try to keep my life as enjoyable as possible, I am an optimist. I enjoy the outdoors and spend as much time as possible on sail boats.

PHILOSOPHY

"I have trouble waking up because my dreams are better than my waking life" I don't live this life to work 5 days then spend one day cleaning my home and the other doing my laundry.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

My Roommates and I rawked the CS scene in Chicago's Logan Square. for a few months, we had surfers 5-7 days a week. I never knew an open source community could be so wonderful and eye opening.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have met so many great people that have surfed our couch and just through CS events in Chicago. We have had surfers come sail with us in Chicago and have met a few people that really changed my life!
