CURRENT MISSION

To plan a sweet trip to Turkey.

ABOUT ME

I'm pretty laid back guy, have a pretty good sense of humor, curious, and love to travel and meet new people from all over the world. I love learning about foreign countries, cultures, and people. There's nothing better in my book than interesting conversation/company, coupled with good food and some dranks (drinks). I've recently been reading as much about the Middle East as I can, and I want to learn more.

PHILOSOPHY

Don't take things too seriously because life is too short. It's a big world, see as much of it as you can. Experience as many things as you can. In twenty years, you'll the regret the things that you didn't do more than the things you did.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

My mission for the rest of this year is to become more active in CS Chicago.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Brussels, Belgium; Riga, Latvia; Tallinn, Estonia; Bogota and Medellin, Colombia. All fantastic experiences in their own right. The kindness of people, irregardless of country and culture, never ceases to humble and amaze me.

兴趣

Reading; anything and everything. Watching movies, preferably the foreign variety. Listening to Pandora Radio all day long. Fussball/calcio/futbol/football/soccer and American football. Meeting new people. Eating good food. And most importantly: traveling, a high that cannot be equalled.
