About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Embracing the new year with an inauguration, traveling, and activism

ABOUT ME

Couchsurfers,

My name is David. I'm finally out of school, and on an adventure of environmental organizing to save the planet! My passion is the environment. I am dedicated to addressing climate change by working for Greenpeace.

When I'm not working, I cycling, eating food, exploring, and meeting new people.

Diet: Vegetarian (not vegan...yet)

Favorite band: Radiohead

Favorite person: Barack Obama

Looking for some cool, friendly people to meet and share experiences with.

PHILOSOPHY

For me, it's choosing your own battles.

Working to enact political and social change in regard to the environment is hard work. I am all about doing what is right, but also being mindful of what I can and cannot change.

I speak from my heart, and love it when others do the same.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Unexpectedly hiked to the summit of a peak in the German Alps. In Fussen, Germany, right above this awesome castle - Neuschwanstein!

Teach, Learn, Share
