Born in Colorado and split resident of Texas, I enjoy spending time doing sports and reading a good book on self-development and business. An entrepreneur at heart, I enjoy challenges and approaching situations from an unorthodox viewpoint. Recently moved back to the weird part of Austin,TX.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Experiences are best shared with friends and people from the city or town that you are visiting. I am currently working in London and traveling around Europe to gain a new view on other cultures and lifestyles. I am also keen on meeting people from the local cities or towns because my belief is that getting a locals knowledge and recommendation is the best way to find hidden gems.

What I Can Share with Hosts

This quote: "...We are part of a finely balanced ecosystem in which interdependency goes hand-in-hand with individuation. We are all individuals, but we are also parts of a greater whole, united in something vast and beautiful beyond description. Perception of the miraculous is the subjective essence of self realization, the root from which man's highest features and experiences grow."
