About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Nomading, meeting other people, seeing how people live, figuring things out even though it's futile, eventually I would like to meet Werner Herzog

PHILOSOPHY

I don't know. I never play the lottery. I love my family, but I don't love Denver. So I'm constantly pushed and pulled from here.
Herzog abhors tourism. But I don't. I think being a tourist is fine, as long as you have an open mind and have some deeper objective than merely "seeing the sights." Traveling is about discovery.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I couchsurfed when I first moved to Seattle. It was a good experience. But I hate disrupting people's lives.

Interests

Did I mention I'm obsessed with Werner Herzog?

Food. Bread and Tea. As much traveling as I can.
