CURRENT MISSION

To Host my First Couch Surfer!!

ABOUT ME

I am into anything outdoors including hiking, sports, diving, you name it. I live for new experiences and I love to travel and meet travelers, to hear about journeys and adventures. While there is a time to work hard, I consider myself to be a bit of a free spirit who doesn't lose sight of the big picture and what's important. I work as Software Developer/ Consultant, which allows me to take long breaks between jobs and travel.

PHILOSOPHY

My philosophy is that our life is a gift. Every moment that we are conscious,alive, and aware of the world around us is a miracle and when you realize this you will forget about all the small nuances that stop a person from loving life.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I am hoping to help out some travelers and hopefully help them get a genuine experience of the little piece of the world I live in. In my own travels the best and most memorable experiences were those in which a local took me under their wing and I hope to return the favor to any surfers heading to my neck of the woods. I am friendly, open, and considerate and I consider myself to be a good host. I will be happy to host up to 2 travelers at a time, showing them around Boston and giving them an experience they will not get staying in a hostel or hotel.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I am completely new to couchsurfing. I had heard about some the site through some friends/participants and I thought it was an awesome idea.
