About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Travel across the world to live, love, and learn about the different cultures of the world & meeting new people

ABOUT ME

I'm a very laid-back & outgoing guy who is up for almost anything. I love to meet new people and enjoy life with whoever will enjoy it with me. I have a dog named Bentley & he is awesome, a dog is a man's best friend and that could not be more true. I am a fan of the outdoors, eating a " good sandwich", sports of any kind & a good laugh.

PHILOSOPHY

“The bad news is time flies. The good news is you’re the pilot.”

Not a personal philosophy but it a damn good quote : " The word " adventure" has just been overused. For me, adventure is when everything goes wrong- that's when the adventure starts." - Yvon Chouinard

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I first heard about couchsurfing through a close friend of mine (long live the DDS) a while ago but never paid much attention to it until more friends of mine began to tell me about it & I began to realize how awesome it was. I have hosted someone before and had a great time with our couchsurfer. I look forward to hosting more couchsurfers in the future and meet some more along the way. I'm looking forward to seeing more of the world.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have only hosted once and look forward to hosting more in the future.

Couch surfed a few times in Poland and Scotland. Both amazing times. I want to try this more.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've skydived before....The Earth looks prettier and more colorful from a mile up

I've backpacked across Europe for 4 months on my own. Definitely going to make it back there to see old friends.

I've hiked the tallest mountain in Texas. Big Bend.

Ive hiked 30+ miles in 3 days in Havauspuai Falls in Arizona. I saw some of the tallest waterfalls in my life during that time.

Teach, Learn, Share

Each day brings a new adventure. Everyday you always learn something new and everyday someone will know something you didn't. Open your brain to what others may offer to the table.

But if you would like to talk sports, geography, randomness ...I would love to talk more.
