About Me

I'm anything but you're average guy. My fear of monotony is what drives me to experience new and challenging endeavors. Staying in the same place for too long and doing the same thing over and over again makes me go nuts so I try to change it up as much as possible. I have a constant desire to learn, explore, and involve myself with the people of the world, bridging gaps, forming bonds, and making people smile whenever possible. If I can help someone have a good day then I feel satisfied. I can't wait to see what tomorrow has to

Here's a link to my traveling partner, she's going to be with me indefinitely, just so you know that we're both awesome people.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

HOpped a freight train on December 21st 2012 that crossed the continental divide. It was 16 hours long and probably the coldest cold I've ever experienced. I probably should've died!

Teach, Learn, Share

I have lived an interesting life, with many relationships and experiences to shape who I am today. I like to think that I've learned and gained knowledge through these experiences. I would love to teach and learn in a symbiotic relationship with whom ever I come across in this long road of life :)

What I Can Share with Hosts

experiences, experiences, experiences! Stories galore, good company, positive vibes, everything awesome, I like to think that instead of what I can share with my hosts, what me and my hosts can share with each other seems like a more appropriate question.

Countries I’ve Visited

Canada, Mexico
