CURRENT MISSION

sail every chance I get... also world domination

ABOUT ME

I will be going to England this summer, alone. I want to do some sailing while I am there.

PHILOSOPHY

I like the idea that every man can determine his own destiny and achieve it.

I also love this quote, it puts all fears to rest:
"I do not fear death. I had been dead for billions and billions of years before I was born, and had not suffered the slightest inconvenience from it." -- Mark Twain

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I think I would like to host first and then be a guest. But since I live in a non-touristy area hosting will probably never happen.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've couch surfed once but I've never hosted.
