ABOUT ME

Trying to decide what to do after 2 years in Tampa... but I'm here for now and my home is open.

PHILOSOPHY

Evil does not corrupt good character. Good people allow themselves to be corrupt around corruption, a state that exists in dormancy within until let out.

Let the happy be happy and the mad be the mad. Those who are happy make themselves happy. Those who are mad create for themselves madness. I harbor no sympathy for the eternal pessimist.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I open my home when I can to those that have the same spirit, desire for life and interest in learning about other people that I do. Every experience I've had so far has been excellent.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I had around 10 or so people stay in my home when I lived Tampa and I've surfed in Atlanta and upstate New York. I'm starting to grow my experiences and opening my world.

Outside of CS, I've crashed with friends all over the United States from Florida to Connecticut to Milwaukee to Alabama to New Orleans to Seattle and more.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Walking into Ohio Stadium and The Swamp to 100,000+ hostile, screaming fans and having an extreme, strange sense of calm.

Fog breaking to crisp, blue sky morning in Colorado as Union Pacific train comes chugging along.

Walking on frozen Taggert Lake under the Tetons in the middle of winter in Grand Teton National Park.

Teach, Learn, Share

Share: College football isn't as glitzy and exciting to play as you'd think it is. It has it's amazing moments and unreal experiences, but it can really where do a vagabond, rambling soul.

Share: The human mind and body are always more capable than you think they are.
