ABOUT ME

He is a very friendly guy. While he may be a little shy or quite initially, he truly cares for people and has their best intentions in mind. He not only knows a lot of people, he knows a lot of different types of people. He lives an active and healthy lifestyle. He loves food and is willing to try most things at least once. I have never known someone to enjoy both board games and the wilderness so much. He is always doing interesting things, be it traveling or volunteering. I rarely see him angry and I don't think he hates anyone. Overall he has been a great friend since I've known him.

PHILOSOPHY

I enjoy new experiences and sharing them with the people you are with. Learning never stops and we can be both students and teachers of\to those around. I believe in servant leadership- service to others becuase its the right thing to do and I believe it will make the world a better place.

Warum ich bei Couchsurfing bin

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I am new to the surfing community and hope to join a very successful and unique organization. When I finally settle down- I hope to continue the cultural experience by hosting surfers in the pay it forward mantra.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have not had much experience with Couch surfing, but have stayed with friends of friends, and let friends of friends stay with me when I was teaching English in Madrid last year.

Interessen

I enjoy doing a multitude of activities from rock-climbing and backpacking, to going to Broadway plays.

Musik, Filme und Bücher

I´m very open and will watch movies from Toy Story to Samurais. I love the type of movies that make you think. Memento, Fight Club, and Shawshank are some of my favorites. I also enjoy a nice laugh with movies such as Blazing Saddles. I like most music- specifically rock, (classic, hard rock). Tenacias D and Tool are favorites. I enjoy the outdoors so am facinated with survival and perserverence stories. But I really enjoy learning and like any book that will help me along my path.

Eine tolle Erfahrung, die ich gemacht habe

Finishing the half-marathon. I had ran 5 miles 1 time before I started training. To be able to complete a goal was very important to prove to myself I could do whatever I set my mind to.
I did a service learning trip in Jamaica last year. Seeing the difference between the lives of the local young students we were assisting and the luxurious lifestyles and hotels of vacationeers.

Lehren, lernen, teilen

I am hoping to become a life coach one day and really enjoy helping people reach goals yet also enjoy living their lifes in the moment. I love the outdoors and traveling and just being a person who enjoys all aspects of life. I can teach English and am currently learning Spanish but am always open to learning throughout my life.
