About Me

CURRENT MISSION

getting as lost as i can, to find myself............

ABOUT ME

I grew up in the mid-west, and graduated from Kansas State University. I have a certified case of the travel bug, which I contracted while living in Barcelona for 7 months. Now I live in Denver, CO, after a year of kicking it in Austin, TX and a 2 year stop in Seattle. I love to rock climb, snowboard, backpack, and just explore in general. I enjoy cooking, but my style generally involves lots of garlic, veggies, and just being creative. While traveling in the EU I developed a passion for photography, but that is just something that I play around with. There are many other things to say, and for you to know, but I think that will do it for now.....Oh, and I cant wait for my next trip to anywhere.

PHILOSOPHY

"Be open to the new things that you know nothing about and the people whom you know nothing, you might learn something."

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I have surfed on 3 continents and hosted both in the US and while living in Spain. I am always down to host or show you around my current city when I'm not on the move and love meeting up for cafés, beers, dinner and good times. If you are willing and able to host, I'm ready to crash on your floor or couch...I'm not very picky!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Although I have been out of the game for a bit due to personal circumstance, I have found CS to be AMAZING!

It has been a way to meet wonderful people, with amazing aspirations and outlook on life.

I have yet to have a negative experience!
