Hello, my name is Mike. I'm a college graduate who is enjoying life and ready to get out there and start seeing more of the world. I've traveled a little bit already, but I know there's still so much more to see. I love meeting new people and making new friends and being social. I am gay, and Muslim, which I know is a little bit of a contradiction, but it works for me. That being said, I am very respectful of different values and cultures, and I don't judge others. I don't party too much, but I definitely know how to have a good time and I'm hoping that I can make some new friends here who can show me a good time. I am a genuinely good guy who is easy to get along with and I look forward to meeting others who are the same and I'm looking forward to exchanging cultures and making memories. Hopefully soon enough I'll have a schedule that allows me to host whenever, but for now I'll just have to play it by ear.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Through the little bit of traveling that I have done, I have learned that things can add up quickly, so I need to save where I can. Also, I'm starting to be a little more adventurous and travel on my own, so it would be great to make new friends along the way who are local and can show me how to really enjoy their homes. And last, finding other travel buddies would be awesome, so if that's you, please feel free to hit me up!

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can share my passion for life and for making people laugh, as well as my open mind. I'm all about sharing what I can about American culture, and I promise, we're not all bad; I can also share what I know about other cultures I've encountered as well. I look forward to absorbing just as much from any friends I make along the way.
