CURRENT MISSION

Meet new people to do whatever. Chat. Travel. See stuff. Ride some big mountains.

ABOUT ME

I'm from VA. I read a lot at work. On my time off I like to take trips near and far. I'm upbeat and happy, intellectual and outgoing.
Drinks. Live music. Movies. Parks.

PHILOSOPHY

I learned this after hiking up a mountain barefooted: "Going slow doesn't make it hurt less, it just makes it hurt longer." Not sure how that applies, but as generalizations go, I can usually find a way to work it in.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I have hosted/surfed a few times and met some of my best friends and favorite people through this community.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have spent at least 2 years of my life sleeping on friends couches and another 4 months in hostels, so I think I have a good idea how this works.
