CURRENT MISSION

Having more fun than humanly possible...

ABOUT ME

I am ridiculously tall (6'8"), funny (at least I think so), gregarious (if you like to talk, we could end up being up late...), kind and courteous (I grew up in the Midwest!), curious (I will want to get to know you!) and I have never been arrested (seems relevant if I'll potentially be staying in your house!) nor done anything that COULD have gotten me arrested.

I don't smoke or drink so you don't need to worry about CRAZINESS. Nor do I snore, so there shouldn't be anything to keep you up at night =)!

I have an online business and teach people to fly. I grew up in Chicago, and came out to California for a couple years of college. I've been here on and off ever since!

PHILOSOPHY

"The right to be ridiculous is something I hold very dear." -Bono

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I surfed my way through Italy last year and it was fantastic! Now I have my own place and would love to play host!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Only a surfer up to this point! I'm excited to show the same hospitality I've been shown to anyone who visits!

Interests

Coffee, staying up late, trying to become a better morning person, good conversations, not smiling normally for pictures (drives my grandma CRAZY), traveling, eating ice cream, being tall, and perhaps COMING SOON: sleeping on random peoples' couches!!!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Hm...Rafting the Zambezi river was pretty incredible, as was the Nile. I flew a helicopter from Florida to Brazil a couple years ago. I was arrested in Haiti...
