Hey my name is Jacob. I'm originally from Monroe, LA but have lived all over Louisiana, currently in New Orleans. I've also traveled majority of America, Western Europe, Mexico, and my favorite, Costa Rica!!!! I'm friendly, respectful, adventurous, spiritual, minimalist, and open-minded. My current mission in life is establishing community based self-sufficiency and enabling those who want to become more self-sufficient. I received a permaculture certificate in Costa Rica. July 2011 and try to implement those principles in my every day life.

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

I feel like this is a great resource to not only travel at low cost but also get to meet people, make connections, and build community.
