About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Meet new people, explore the world, and have a great time doing it!

ABOUT ME

Easy going, love to try new foods, up for new things too! I think meeting new people can inspire great conversation. I welcome new perspectives and seek out adventure.

PHILOSOPHY

Enjoy life. There is always something worth being pleased with. I suppose that is the cheesy glass half full attitude, but a smile is contagious. I like to try new things...especially new foods!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I have a few friends that use couch surfing a lot. It is great to meet the folks they bring around. I have not hosted as much as I would like to, but that is in part due to living alone and being a little wary of safety. However those I have hosted have been lovely.

I look forward to meeting new people. As I travel couchsurfing is a way to make a new cities a bit more homey.

Interests

I have a lot of interests, of course travel is a key one! I also enjoy doing aerial arts, acrobalance, climbing, soccer (football), outdoor activities, eating, live music, etc.

Music, Movies, and Books

Hard to choose favorites. I like Clan of the Cave bear. That would be one of my favorite books for sure. But I range in what I read. I am always open to suggestions.

Amazing is a big word...

Acrobalance with friends
Meandering the streets of foreign countries
Asking strangers sincerely about their lives
Zealously losing myself in watching insects in the wilderness
Inspiring new scientific thoughts in kids
Negotiating climbing in Yosemitie
Ground friends in need
