CURRENT MISSION

Travel aimlesly, experience everything and nothing.

ABOUT ME

I moved around a lot growing up, but I spent most of my time in south-east Missouri in the small town of Jackson. I went to school in another small Missouri town of Kirksville in north-east Misouri. I graduated in May 09, and in November I finally got my first 'real' job in my field here in Kansas City. Wanting to experience something radically different from the small town living I was used to, I decided to move into a loft in downtown KC.

Since I've never surfed or hosted before I tried to include plenty of information about myself, but if you have any other questions or concerns please feel free to ask!

PHILOSOPHY

Treat everybody with kindness, give everyone the benefit of the doubt.

Search for nothing and you will find everything.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Haven't had the pleasure!

Interessen

I like doing active things: Raquetball, volleyball, ultimate frisbee, biking, tennis.

I like being lazy: watching movies, games, reading books, programming, good beer, falling asleep when exhausted.

Somewhere in the middle: Cooking, ukulele and guitar (poorly!), DJing, home brewing.

Lehren, lernen, teilen

I like to cook, but the only thing I can really cool that is 'cool' or 'impressive' is Pad Thai... so I guess I can teach you how to cook a mean Pad Thai!
