About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Philadelphia is done, my contract is over, I'm packing up my apartment (read: eBaying / Craiglisting everything) and am about to hit the road for Central America.

ABOUT ME

I was in the middle of a South/Central American walkabout. I'd covered most of South America and was temporarily detouring through New York when I was ambushed by my ex-boss at a lunch (long story) and agreed to work a contract in Philadelphia for six months. That was October in 2011. 15 months later I've finally finished up with the organisation and am about to pick up where I left off - heading into Central America. January is about dismantling my apartment, and 31st of January is going to be Mexico.

PHILOSOPHY

Life is too short... you should be dancing!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I originally started meeting couch surfers and hanging out with CS groups while I was in South America. I've been hosting in Philadelphia for the last 15 months, and now I'll be getting back into surfing as I head into Central America.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Been a member for about two years now, hosted a bunch of times, met up with lots of people here and overseas, great community for travelers. Looking forward to being back on the surfing side of the equation.
