About Me

CURRENT MISSION

I'm out of school for summer with no job, no place to live, a motorcycle, and 800 dollars for 3 months.

ABOUT ME

I like music (currently mumford and sons, old crow medicine show, macklemore, white stripes, of monsters and men, tupac) surfing, reading, writing, spearfishing and so much more. I want to write a book, direct a movie, surf the best beaches, meet awesome people, learn to enjoy time spent alone and use it as the driving force behind my creativity. I want to be able to fully live off of the land. I currently am a spearfisherman, beginning mushroom hunter, beginning snare trapper, etc who wants to learn how to be fully sustainable if the Zombie Apocolypse ever happens.

I pretty much will try anything. I want to climb everest, experience other cultures, take flight in a wingsuit, break world records, and lose like 10 lbs.

PHILOSOPHY

I want to be happy for the rest of my life. I am not there yet but that is my goal. My grandma always told me the secret of life is you gotta laugh. I love having a good time. Right now I am at the point in my life where I looked at myself as a kid and thought I wouldve done something amazing. Maybe this is it? Maybe this will lead to things? Who knows.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Participation? Do I get a grade for this?

Um hopefully I can participate when I am back in school. I can offer dorm room floors!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Honestly none other than crashing at friends places here and there.

Other than that I ride a motorcycle and travel with a camping backpack with everything important I own in it.

Interests

too many too count. Where would I even start?
Biking, hiking, living off the land, gardening, sustainability, animals, nature, trying new things.

Music, Movies, and Books

Lord of the Rings series (books). And the movies. too many books to count so I'll let you know I just got finished with Bluewater Goldrush and that was awesome some crappy fantasy book I got hafway into and was just put of by the lack of likeability towards the main character.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I spearfished a 38lb yellowtail in Mexico.

Teach, Learn, Share

What can I teach? What am I qualified to teach is a better question. I don't know. I can mushroom hunt on the west coast and teach you about which species are edible. I can teach you how to spearfish if you have gear. I can't travel with mine. I can teach you how to tell a bad joke. How not to hit on women at a bar. I can teach you about all the Lord of the rings series.
