Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
Right now I just want to get through school, after that I have no idea. I'd like to travel the world, I'd like to ride my motorcycle as far as possible and see all that I can.
ABOUT ME
All about me... this list I fear may be too long, boring, dreadful, aweful... prehaps hilarious for the weak hearted. I love my life, I love all of the people in it, and most importantly I want to use this life entrusted to me to travel the world to understand cultures and ways of life differing from mine. I love music, so I'd like to experiance what each region has to offer musically; I like food, so the above statement qualifies for that as well; and I love culture in general - immerse me.
PHILOSOPHY
It isn't what we do or what we say that define a person, it isn't a flag or officials that define a country, it is what we do for others and how we place others before ourselves that make us human.
It's the journey, not the destination.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
Right now, I don't exactly have a couch to contribute - I have a chair but that might not be extreamly comfortable. I live in a Dorm in Stony Brook New York about an hour and a half or so from NYC. I'm not sure as to the avialability of vacancy at this point, but those interested I will try to make an inquiry.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
At this point, not much - I haven't been fortunate enough to stay at anyone's home, just hotels and inns. This is why I joined, I want to enjoy a country on the most personal level - with the people who call it their own home.
Interests
Music, Motorcycling, Driving, snowsports, photography, cycling, driving, mountain hiking, swimming, sightseeing, traveling (kind of obvious), just sitting... doing nothing and pondering life, the universe, and everything...

Music, Movies, and Books
I love all types of music ranging from Rap, Hip-Hop, techno, to classical, jazz and alternative. Movies, I'm open to anything, and the same for books - if it's interesting, you've got me.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
1.) The ocean
2.) Watkins Glen Gorge after torrential rain, and almost getting hit by falling rocks - then with the sun on the way back
3.) Sun setting behind the mountains in Phoenix, Arizona
4.) White Water rafting in New River Gorge, West Virginia,
5.) Formed an amazing group of friends I'd be willing to do anything with, and for
6.) Traveled to Peru for 3 weeks December 2014 - January 2015
Teach, Learn, Share
What do I have to offer? That's an interesting question... all I can say is ask me, and I'll see what I can make of it. I am an Eagle Scout, and enjoy helping people, seeing the world, conserving it and just the day to day events that we welcome in this life of ours.
I would ultimately like to learn some of the native language of those people I meet, as well as see some of the natural, historic, and man-made wonders of the world.
