About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Meet travelers from all over the world!

ABOUT ME

My friend and I used his account when we were biking around the western US from Colorado to Canada to Seattle to Los Angeles.

I am really positive, active, and love to meet new people and travel!

I like wool socks, fresh cut grass, freshly baked bread, old houses, good food and sunsets over the desert, mountains and ocean. I also really like to camp and have hosted more than used CS because I like to sleep under the stars!

PHILOSOPHY

Live Like You Mean It!

20 years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you didn't do more than the things you did do...

To laugh often and much;
To win the respect of intelligent people
and the affection of children;
To earn the appreciation of honest critics
and endure the betrayal of false friends;
To appreciate beauty, to find the best in others;
To leave the world a bit better, whether by a healthy child,
a garden patch or a redeemed social condition;
To know even one life has breathed easier because you have lived.
This is to have succeeded.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I am currently willing to show people the beauty of South Florida or to meet up for a drink. I love to travel in my free time and try to take a few international trips per year! If you read my profile and think you would mesh well with me definitely reach out.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

My friend and I used his account when we were biking around the western US from Colorado to Canada to Seattle to LA. But we mostly just camped on the side of the road, under bridges, in city parks because we really never knew where we would be each night. As of late I have been hosting quite alot, I went over a month with a CSer at my apartment every night!
