About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Meet new people and help them out...sorry, not witty:)

ABOUT ME

Considerate, laid back, smart. They would want me to get out in nature more. They would warn you about my competitive side if we play any games. They would highlight my travels and the joy we have in discussing people and the news of world.

They have seen my patterns of both good and bad decisions, so each of them would have something different to say about couchsurfing and hosting. One would just say, it is awesome I am trying it. One would ask what precautions I have taken and proceed to list all that she thinks should be done. One would say bring the surfers on by.

PHILOSOPHY

Learn like you will never die, act like you may not live past tomorrow.

○ Leap into new experiences
○ Continue learning
○ Put my passions to best use for society

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I am surfing as I travel around the world in 2013. Then I'll start hosting when I return

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

First time was in Airlie Beach, Australia. Thanks to Joe and the other surfers for making it a great introduction!

Music, Movies, and Books

Pop culture for movies...I am for some reason addicted to shows like survivor or the amazing race..please don't judge. I am not so hot on subtitled movies or any that everyone goes on and on about the "art" of it or how it is important for the time it was made. I am more interested in learning, being entertained, or going on an emotional journey with a movie. Even if it is to laugh and root for The Avemgers.

Austin has tons of music. I never know who sings what, but I love just walking in and seeing what is happening.

Books - all kinds. Sometimes pass the time/escape, sometimes get context on history or locations, sometimes learn,etc

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Mountain Gorillas in Rwanda

Seeing the factory I helped design from scratch start working.

I am sure quite a few amazing experiences on my 2013 round the world trip...
A lot of really great experiences, too many to name.

Teach, Learn, Share

I am quite a gadget geek, so open for conversations there.

Always looking for a partner in adventures. Always wanted to zip line or skydive or do some other random thing I haven't thought of? Let's go.

Have any skills you'd like to share? I need some help in the cooking and crafts type department!
