About Me

CURRENT MISSION

I travel to explore, discover and share.

ABOUT ME

As a recovering video game addict :) I tried MANY social/sport activities and eventually discovered hiking and climbing.

Today, I'm about to discover extended bike touring!

PHILOSOPHY

I think we have a responsibility to offer the best of ourselves to the world, and so I strive to feel good in my mind and body.

The world community's atomic granilarity is people and self-realization is our greatest contribution it.

I try to be a lucid idealist.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I'm still new to Couch Surfing but I have been hearing about the community for years. I like the way the CS seems to inspire generosity and collaboration, and facilitates travelling through.

I think we're all embassadors of our cultural background and I welcome opportunities to mutually share some of it with other people.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I remember the day we climbed El Dorado Peak up in Washington's North Cascades. It had been cloudy all day, and just as we were making the last push up the knifedge, the clouds cleared, we were suddenly above them, and then we noticed we were on the summit!
