CURRENT MISSION

Riding a motorcycle from Seattle to Austin down HWY 1 as long as possible....

ABOUT ME

I'm an honest and trustworthy guy with strong roots in Austin, but ultimately decided I needed more adventure and new experiences. After a long motorcycle trip through Western Europe, Mexico and Costa Rica I am addicted to new travel smells and sights. By FAR the best part of my travels have been the new people and faces to greet me. I've made what I know will be lifelong friends and those connections and lessons have led to great things. I came home after my first long hiatus from the cube and started a small business designing and building vintage motorcycles. It's been a crazy adventure and I'm ready to get it running more independently so that I can travel more often.....

PHILOSOPHY

Conquer your insecurities and embrace your faults....things get easy from there.

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I have hosted several groups and crashed on more than a few couches.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
