PHILOSOPHY

Travelers are a different breed, cut from the same cloth, and the absolute coolest people to identify with. It takes one to know one. Live for the moment and find your true self while traveling.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I'm free thinker, comfortable in any social situation, whether a night club on the Strip or primitive camping and long hikes. I love to go out and show people Vegas, or the local side tourists rarely see. I've been known to drink a few as well! There's a Euro hostel attitude and feel welcome to cook, laundry, and use the house as a communal area.
