ABOUT ME

Providence firefighter- BASE jumper - life's journey

After college I came to the realization that a great deal of life should be focused on being a good person and meeting new interesting people along the way. I drove 9,000 miles cross country and back couch-surfing; it was a fascinating experience. I tell all my friends to couch-surf as it has really opened my eyes to new ideas, cultures and ways of life. I love the idea of sharing your space with a fellow surfer and relating to them through stories, similar interests and good gestures. In the future I hope to surf all over Europe make lasting connections around the world.

I like to spend time outdoors so if the weather is good I can show you some great outdoor spots for climbing/hiking/beach..whatever. I'm always down to hang after work or on the weekends if I'm not too busy. Also, I am constantly making plans for my next jump; so if you are around maybe you run ground crew or be our get away driver so we don't get busted.

PHILOSOPHY

Life is a journey; refuse to succumb to mediocrity, laziness and negativity. Aim to gain knowledge and wisdom along the way and pass it down to the younger generation in the future.

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

I am eager to learn about you and have a good conversation. Who isn't guilty of getting sucked into the digital age and living through a screen? Lets take the time away from our phones and computers for a bit and interact on a human level. As a couch-surfer I want to get away from that and reconnect to what makes us the way we are. We are on this planet to experience new and profound things, making strong personal connections along the way. Creating lasting memories and doing good deeds is not only fulfilling but essential to our growth. As we all move forward in time the disconnect continues to widen. Let's get back to what makes the human race so special.

That being said I have many interests so it's likely that we have something in common. I am constantly trying to improve myself so I want to hear about your perception of life and your ideas on what is meaningful and important.

If you live in a tall building or high rise apartment I will probably want to jump it.

Love to eat and drink at new places and just have a good conversation. Not opposed to helping clean, run errands or help you out if you need a favor. I can tell you about my life; where I'm going/where I've been. Simple stuff.
