CURRENT MISSION

Discover new people and places while pushing my limits.

ABOUT ME

I'm Scott! I like to meet all kinds of people and tend to be quite optimistic about life in general. I love to laugh and can see the humor in most every situation. I love my job in higher education--it's a passion of mine--and I'm proud of the experiences I've earned in life. Working with different cultures on a cruise ship has ultimately shaped how I view the world today.

PHILOSOPHY

Everything happens for a reason.
~~~
Recipe for Success: Study while others are sleeping; work while others are loafing; prepare while others are playing; and dream while others are wishing.

--William A. Ward
~~~
Dream it. Do it.

--Walt Disney

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I am a host and a traveler.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Road tripping from San Francisco to Seattle should be an adventure all it's own. The highlights of my trip, though, were my two CS experiences during the journey. Great conversation, incredible people and the best "insider's" look to each city are basic reasons to love this project. I sincerely believe in the CS mission and look forward to sharing it with other travelers.
