About Me

CURRENT MISSION

I will be living throughout Europe from May-September 2010

ABOUT ME

Fun and open person that is altering his career path this summer and setting out for a long term adventure into Europe. I am incredibly open minded and would like to meet some people with radical thinking, and new ideas. My brother did CS during the summer of 2008 and met some of the most amazing new friends around the world. I graduated college in the US in 2006, I consider myself very clean and organized. I never like to impose on people and can blend into the background if a host does not want to socialize too much. I have been working a corporate job for five years, and doing some comedy on the side...however it is time to follow my passion for travel into the world. I have dreamed of making this trip since high school and finally have the money saved up to do it. I love to cook and hope to learn local cuisines during my time in each country. I am also physically fit so if you need help around the house I can be of assistance. I have also made it my goal to learn how to surf on this trip, so I'm hoping to spend time near the coast. I look forward to meeting many of you out on the trail.

Thank you

PHILOSOPHY

Life, interesting

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I am just starting out on this CS journey, however my brother has raved about the great moments he has been a part of. I'd like to build new friendships around the world and learn from the people I encounter. At the same time, I can impart any of the minor wisdom I have acquired.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I spent much of my college years couch surfing, I am excited to do it again. Sadly I just joined the site as my brother just told me about it as I'm researching my journey.
