CURRENT MISSION

Two years around the world, finding need to help alleviate it, immersing in culture along the way.

ABOUT ME

I've spent the last 10 years working as a producer, editor and designer, living what would be considered a normal life. A friend and I decided that we wanted to experience life outside of the States and engage in humanitarian work while traveling. We just got back from eight months traveling through Asia. We are on a break, taking care of things back home, visiting with family, and training for the next leg. I have learned so much in my travels, and am unsure what life has in store for me next.

PHILOSOPHY

Live a life of purpose, whatever that purpose may be.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

For the next few years, I will be enjoying the kindness of strangers. After I find my way home, I intend to return the favor.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I'm just beginning, so there's not much to write. It's been a great experience, so far. It's a very generous thing to be able to take advantage of. I think it is a great way to meet people you normally wouldn't have the chance to. It's a much better way to travel than staying in hotels and guesthouses.
