ABOUT ME

I am very laid back and enjoy being around people most of all. I have studied intercultural studies and have a particular interest in intercultural counseling. I have made it my lifelong goal of understanding the way people think within the context of their specific cultures. I'm currently taking a break from studies for the purpose of gaining more meaningful experiences as well as to explore coffee culture around the world (another profound interest of mine)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm on couch surfing to foster mutual appreciation for culture, language, and the things we do that we find personally meaningful.

Interests

I love traveling, surprise. I love reading as I go from place to place but also love to motorcycle places when possible. Life is best enjoyed with a good drink in the hand and a friend at the side.

Music, Movies, and Books

I'm a jazz and blues guy with a soft spot for electronic music and am a sap for a good singer-songwriter.

Cool Runnings changed my life. Watch it.

Most recently I've been on a dystopian kick but usually I love reading anything related to psychology, religion, or philosophy.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've given up complacent living to explore planet earth.

...And most recently I went bungee jumping in New Zealand and it changed my life almost as much as watching Cool Runnings.
