I've led a dull life playing video games, sleeping, working and not talking to anyone until lately, I decided to have a better life than that, and the shape that took has been motorcycling across the US while hiking, camping, meeting people and seeing and doing everything I can and visit distant internet friends too. And when I get tired of it I'll find work and settle in a great place. So I've been doing that for over two months and it's felt like years and it's been the best time of my life.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

It's tough to have conversations that last more than a minute out on the road, to actually do anything fun with a person - so I figure I'd try Couchsurfing. I only end up talking to bartenders, waiters/waitresses, guys at gas stations who like motorcycles, and campsite neighbors. Travelling the country is incomplete unless I really see and know the people I'm passing by. And making real friends is possible too.

Interests

Interest is infectious for me, if someone shows a genuine interest in something I've never thought about, I'll probably become interested in it too.

Music, Movies, and Books

Not a music buff but I like electronic, dubstep, music that is high energy and psychedelic and filled with indecipherable noises and bizarre vocals. Music that should stress someone out. I also like classical music.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Went skydiving recently and that experience is burned into my brain as being potentially the most terrifying and exciting thing I've experienced since I was born.

Teach, Learn, Share

Not sure what this section means - I can teach about digital art, basic music theory, computer troubleshooting, some basic motorcycle or car repair know-how, and what you need to hike or travel light.

What I want to learn most right now is how to identify plants and specifically which are edible and how to prepare them. Playing music with people who can teach me to explore more advanced scales would be great too. I enjoy learning about things I can use - because if I don't use it, I forget it. I also really want to learn how to freshwater fish.

If share means material possessions then, I'm usually open to share whatever I have with anyone as long as I can spare it. I don't carry much - I don't own anything besides what is on my bike.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I am open to trying new things and adventuring into places I've never been. I enjoy a good conversation and I listen more than I talk. I'm not a great story teller but I can speak on my travels so far, which have been far from boring.
