Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
To travel the world, see new places and meet new people.
ABOUT ME
Well after spending the last few years traveling and working around the world I find myself back in the routine of a corporate job sitting in a cube. I love meeting people from around the world and learning about their cultures.
PHILOSOPHY
I want to learn to be a traveler, not a tourist!
I also want to learn to understand the world around me through traveling.

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I never really tried CouchSurfing while I was traveling and now wish I had. But I am back in the US and might be up for hosting people.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I'm still new to this so I have experiences to look forward to!
