CURRENT MISSION

Create peace and kindness by connecting with people and serving humanity with humility

ABOUT ME

I'm a friendly, social, laid-back guy, who is always looking to explore new ideas and new ways of life. I love the wilderness and the city. It all fascinates me and excites me. I love life. I love people. I'm an idealist and an optimist who really believes that all people are capable of contributing and serving the world through creative expression.

I'm a peace loving, anarchist-leaning, feminist, stoic, and existentialist, who believes that this can be a world of justice, beauty and harmony.

PHILOSOPHY

There are an unlimited number of paths up the mountain, but the goal is always the same; love, understanding, connection and usefulness. If your goal is to create and not destroy, then you have my respect.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I couch surfed with friends (before I was on the website) in Delhi, India; Chicago, Illinois and Austin, Texas. I've always loved it. It is such an incredible opportunity to meet kind and generous people and to connect with a new location in a real and immediate way. I love you all Couch Surfers!

Teach, Learn, Share

I am trained in wilderness survival and native american survival skills and love to teach it to people. I am a student of philosophy and intellectual history and I'm always down for exploring the mysteries of the universe with anyone. I'm also a decent political philosopher and I'm always down for exploring the idea of right and just government. I'm a good cook (specializing in vegan Ayurvedic recipes).
