CURRENT MISSION

To live and love life. To find and spread joy. To explore and experience. And hopefully make a difference in some people's lives.

ABOUT ME

I am an American teaching English in Chiang Mai, Thailand. I am loving life here and plan on staying long term but I'm still taking time out to travel and explore the rest of the world. I like to think that I'm open to trying pretty much anything and I love learning about different cultures and getting to know different people. As long as good people around and good food is involved I can have a great time relaxing with friends or going out on the town.

PHILOSOPHY

Still developing a personal philosophy, and I imagine I'll never fully be finished figuring it out, but I do try to live it life in a way that allows me to be open to any new experiences. I've found that even my negative experiences in life have led me down a good path so I try to be unafraid and open to new experiences.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I haven't really participated in couch surfing yet but I'm excited to get started! I would host people here in Chiang Mai if I could but I live in a one room house with no couch or extra space to speak of!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Very little but it's a great idea and a great way to meet people.

Interests

I am an avid reader, martial artist and yoga practitioner. I also love to cook and learn random facts about life and people through a good podcast or article online.
