About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Experience Earth

ABOUT ME

I'm tall...really tall. Overall, I'm an easy-going, laid back guy and I get along with just about everybody. I like to go out dancing and have a good time but I am also content to hang out and just relax. I enjoy expanding my thoughts and experiences through meeting new people and good conversation.

PHILOSOPHY

Karma. There is always more to do, explore, see and learn. The goal should be to never stop.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have hosted a few friends past year and am looking to get more involved as I start to travel more in the coming months.

Interests

I love being outdoors and doing things. I am always up for exploring more of not just the world and the people in it but the city I a live in as well.

  • festivals
  • dancing
  • running
  • traveling
  • outdoor activities
  • rock climbing

Music, Movies, and Books

Mostly non-fiction books but Michael Crichton is always good. Shawshank Redemption and the original Star Wars trilogy top the movie category.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

That's a tough choice but if I had to pick the top three moments they might have to be as follows, in no particular order: Seeing the Terracotta Army in X'ian, China. The shear size and detail was amazing. Next, Running with the bulls (twice) during the festival of San Fermin in Pamplona, Spain. I ran the second year because the only way my friends were going to run was if the veteran, that being me, was going to run. Finally, climbing to the top of Aconcagua in the Argentine Andes. One of the seven summits and highest point in the world outside of the Himalayas. It is the toughest thing I have ever done and the view from the top is awe-inspiring.
