CURRENT MISSION

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I am just starting to get into CS and am traveling right now, however when I return home, I would certainly like to be a host.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have only used CS to find a host once so far, but it was a very good experience and one that made me want to become part of this community.

Interests

To me, the best place to be is outside. I grew up in the mountains of the Pacific Northwest and that spirit is still with me. I am exploring the world in search of adventure, friendship and perspective.

Music, Movies, and Books

Hmm, I'll just name a few. Movies: American Beauty, Terminator 2, LOTR series. Music: Mostly rock and hip hop, I have a large collection I am always adding to. Recent books I've enjoyed have been City of God, Middlesex and Incendiary.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

The two that come to mind right away are my first time on a peak in the Himalayas, which I then got to ski down(!), and the view from Ol Doinyo Lengai volcano near the Serengeti. The work required to get to the top of both, the view from the tops, the beauty all around me, it is the reason I am a traveler.

Teach, Learn, Share

The only animal with four knees is the elephant.
