CURRENT MISSION

To have a dream besides the american dream.

ABOUT ME

I've been a few places. I would rather say yes to something than let my reservations come out so quickly. I'm trying to expand the list of sports I participate in at the moment.

PHILOSOPHY

Don't worship created things.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Every time traveling comes up Couch Surfing comes into the conversation. I try to encourage people to get rid of their fears and actually spend time with people they wouldn't normally spend time with.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've met 2 couchsurfers in Hong Kong and had a great time with them. Summer of '08 I ate a delicious dinner with a CSer in Costa Rica. Now that we have our own place we try to host as much as possible. It is a great community of people to meet and hang out with.

Music, Movies, and Books

I just read Walden and am tempted to follow what he did. I also just watched Into the Wild....and that is tempting except for the last part.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've been in a triathlon and hiked at 10,000 ft. If it was a competition I wouldn't win but it has been a great time. I've put a dead man in a casket....interesting more than amazing.

Teach, Learn, Share

I want to meet anyone different than I am really(similar people are okay too!). I think it is the nature of life to spend time with similar people and different people always make me have a more honest outlook on life.

Countries I’ve Visited

China, Costa Rica, Egypt, Israel, Jordan, Peru, Ukraine

Countries I’ve Lived In

United States
