CURRENT MISSION

To see what is beyond the bubble that is Southern California, starting with Australia

ABOUT ME

I'm new to couchsurfing and am not sure where to begin.. Id like to meet new interesting people and see new places all over the world. I am most comfortable outside, carrying a 40 pound backpack wandering around aimlessly, or spending an entire day swimming in the ocean. I am the middle of 5 kids and have lived in Southern California my whole life. The extent of my travel is within the United States, and I'm excited to see what else is out there.

PHILOSOPHY

I believe the most important thing in life is to have a solid circle of people in your life that you love and trust, and that happiness will closely follow.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I formed an adventure crew of about 12 people who shared my love for backpacking. For a couple of years we would organize weekend trips where we would either backpack or just take day hikes. It was a wonderful experience and was the perfect excuse to take the weekend off and spend it in the mountains somewhere camping. Sometimes life gets in the way and its nice to have an activity you can share with other people.
