I love traveling and finding adventure. I have been to over 20 countries and am pursuing become an adventure guide/counselor for those wanting to find fulfillment in their lives back home. I have made friends in each country I've visited and stayed in contact. It is my goal to reach 50 countries by 2017.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

I believe you know your city and country best. I feel removed from why I'm really visiting the country if I stay at a hotel, distanced from genuinely learning about the culture and making new friends. The exchange of ideas, perspectives, philosophy and travel tips is incredibly beneficial. I love to come home to the states and share what I learn with my friends. My hope is that they will travel and see more without fear of this amazing world that is out there.

兴趣

My greatest passion while traveling is photography and exploring the country. Back home I enjoy the outdoors! Rafting, kayaking, hiking, snowboarding, riding motorcycles, horseback riding and playing sports. I'm also starting to get more involved with projects involving service back to the public such as restoring schools or trails for public use. I'm a heavy reader on philosophy and personal development.

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

Hike the Mount Everest Base Camp trail. The hospitality and kindness of the Nepali people was healing beyond words. Unfortunately I had food poisoning the whole 10 days on the trail and all of the pharmacies were closed. The outreach by people who I met along the trail was very supportive. My experience while on that trip turned the trail into a journey surrounded by the environment and understanding of the Nepali people and the Hindu religion. It was quite incredible.

我可以与沙发主分享些什么

I would love to exchange travel tips, discuss passions in life and even share photos of various countries visited. I believe in bringing a gift for the host. I'm also open to sharing philosophy on life, talking about family, work, activities and so much more.
