About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Growing up is a waste of time. So i figure mature with travel, because through travel life takes a look through different eyes

ABOUT ME

I am 24 years old, I am tall and what some would say I am skinny. I started traveling as a young individual(part of a family) all around Canada and the United States. I didn't really know what to do with myself during college but a friend of mine said come on lets go to Europe! So I went and I loved it! absolutely loved it. being on my own and functioning like the pioneers on the Oregon trail. Just trying to make my way. Then when I got back I still did a little of fun in the US and went back to Europe again by my self. It was great to understand who I really was. I admit sleeping on the streets wasn't a lot of fun but, I didn't learn about couchsurfing.com until the week after I got back. (bummer) I absolutely love the idea of experiences. I love meeting people and trying new things like eating ants, and canyoning. this is me and this is a great life.

PHILOSOPHY

To be great is to be misunderstood.......Ralph Waldo Emerson

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I was in Berlin and needed a place to stay. I didn't know a lick of German but i was destined to find someone. I was walking on a train and I found this young man who helped me. He let me surf his couch. I asked him...Can you take me to a German style restaurant? He said yeah and pulled into a KFC. That is when I knew Germans really want to be like Americans....haha. This Was the first and I don't plan for it to be the last!
