I decided to leave the American rat race and travel the world for 5 years. I plan to live in a new country between 6-12 months at a time. While taking shorter trips to their surrounding countries. August marks year 2.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

In my experience, the most authentic way to get to know a country is through locals that want to share. Not through hotels and things designed for tourism.

Music, Movies, and Books

My roots are definitely underground hiphop. But I've learned to appreciate all music. And Jazz us always good with me.
Business, Knowledge and Biographies or history. A few of my audible books right now (I hate actually reading) Rich Dad Poor Dad, Sell or Be Sold, Money: Master the Game, Crush It and of course The 4 Hour Work Week (if you haven't read it, stop reading this and go pick it up).
I love movies, too many to list. Comedy and Action are my 2 favorite genre. Don't care for horror.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Shortly after leaving America I saw how much happier a "very poor" family was. Even with no money and very little food, basically living out of a cardboard shack. Comparing them to so many unhappy families with tons of money and "wealth". Reminded me how it's the little things in life that matter the most. Love your family and friends and you don't need much more.

Teach, Learn, Share

I would love to share all my knowledge about traveling and the world. Hopefully even inspire more to do travel more and be free. As well, as soak up as much of your culture and ideas from you and your country.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Free English lessons, I'm happy to help with household chores, I love to cook and hopefully a good laugh and a new friend.
