CURRENT MISSION

To make the world a better place to be, one eensy weensy bit at a time

ABOUT ME

I am Matt. I enjoy rock climbing and playing guitar. If you ever find yourself in a new city and are having trouble making friends, try rock climbing! The folks you meet at the gyms are always awesome, friendly and you get people of all ages. I love listening to music, watching live shows, cooking dinner with friends, going out, blah blah all those usual exciting things that young people do. I recently finished undergrad and have been getting used to the "real" world.

PHILOSOPHY

Genuinely treat people how you'd like to be treated. Be so honest it hurts.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

By being available to host, when anyone wants to visit this tiny town, and by having a great time with the awesome folks who have hosted me thus far.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I first signed up with the hopes to host folks and had little to no interest in my area. I told a friend who lives in a different, and larger city, about the site and he got super involved and excited. I've gotten to hang out with the folks he hosts and it's always a good time. I'm currently at the beginning phase of a extended trip on the east coast, and all the CSers I've surfed with so far have been awesome!

Teach, Learn, Share

Bipolar disorder is typically when someone experiences extreme crippling depression some of the time and an incredibly energetic and unstoppable mania. I don't have it, nor do I know anyone who does, but I find that it's commonly misinterpreted at Multiple Personality Disorder.
