CURRENT MISSION

Bicycle from Minneapolis, MN to Austin TX before midnight Halloween 2008.

ABOUT ME

I'm a non-smoking 24 year old adventurous red-headed male with a single tattoo, markers in my pocket, and a metal pole in my left leg but you wont notice that.

PHILOSOPHY

Nature is the strongest conveyance of beauty but I do alright.

Pourquoi je suis sur Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I'll wash the dishes, cook, clean up after myself, leave you a drawing, write you sporadic heartfelt postcards, reaffirm your sense of self-esteem, pull you into conversations, keep you from getting kicked out of the club, trade a book, compliment you on your bedroom posters, charm your parents, boost you over a fence, and tell you that grizzly and polar bears have begun to mate and produce a new species of bear- did you know that?

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I usually sleep on the floor.

Une aventure extraordinaire que j'ai vécue

You know that mountain road the Torrence family is driving through during the opening credits of "The Shining"? The "Going To The Sun" road. I've bicycled down that under a full moon, that was pretty good... oh, and i've seen both a dragon and a unicorn, for real.

Enseignez, apprenez, partagez

I can handle some minor carpentry, fix a leaky faucet or a meal, and i've painted roughly the surface area of any small town.
