About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To visit some great places while meeting people and showing them a good time here (Plattsburgh) if they choose to come.

ABOUT ME

I like to have a good time and try to have everyone around me do the same. I am up for just about anything and am willing to try new things. I Snowboard, love music (all kinds), I like to watch movies, but prefer to be outside as much as possible. I am easy going and easy to get along with (as are my friends) and love meeting new people as long as they are open minded and harbor no ill will towards anyone (unless there is good reason). I enjoy people who accept others for who they are and are willing to hangout and talk with anyone. All people are welcome, you show respect... you get respect (I live by this), come with a good attitude and we will get along great.

PHILOSOPHY

Live and let live. If you do no harm to me I shall do no harm to you and I expect the same in return. I live to enjoy life and to experience as much as I can. Human to Human experiences and sharing cultures are the most precious things in the world. Be who you are and allow people to be who they are, you can't expect to get along with everybody but you can try.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I'd like to begin to participate by inviting anyone who wishes to come to Plattsburgh to do so, you have a couch or two here. Whether you are coming to stay and experience Plattsburgh or just on your way to somewhere else it doesn't matter, I'd be more than happy to accommodate any honest and good person in anyway that I can. As soon as I am able I would like to travel as much as I can and hope to have many memorable experiences with some possible new friends.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Music, Movies, and Books

Too much and too many to list. We will have ample time to discuss such things if we ever meet.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

My intercultural experiences are some of the things that I cherish the most in my short life and I want to continue to have many more.

Amazing things can be talked about when we meet. Maybe we will even be able to share a common "amazing thing done/seen"

Teach, Learn, Share

I want to learn from whoever I can. I love talking to people and figuring out why they believe what they believe, do what they do, and the reasons behind these things. Open conversation and discussion leads to many things, especially a better understanding of the people and the world around us. To understand one another communication is needed along with an open mind, any two people (or groups of people) can communicate in ways that transcend language and when you reach the point where you do not need to share a common language in order to understand one another, that is a truly beautiful thing. We are all human, all the same, yet so different. We need to recognize this, embrace it, and then forget about it and have a good time living amongst one another.
