Hello beautiful travelers. My name is Grant, I am an eternal optimist and I make constant effort to shine my positivity with every person I meet. I practice and teach yoga and meditation everyday. I am passionate about drawing and filmmaking! Finally I am a substance-free vegan but I am absolutely judgment free of all lifestyle choices. I live an organized and minimalist lifestyle.

Whenever I graciously stay with a host, I make them a piece of art.

I am currently in Arizona headed to Hawaii this June and then down through South America where I plan to travel and eventually settle.

I love and live for the outdoors. Mountains and Oceans I cannot decide between the two.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I want to travel the world. I hope to make new friend connections with awesome and insightful locals. I want to build my personal friendship community so I can eventually offer my future home to other surfers when I settle in Argentina.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I make an original piece of art for every host that I stay with!

I can share my enthusiasm for art, nature and human connection. If you need an adventure buddy then I am your guy. One line in my personal mantra is:

"...I am the man who elevates and helps others achieve their goals and in doing so I achieve mine."
