CURRENT MISSION

Develop some skills with a medium format camera.

ABOUT ME

I'm a pretty easy going guy. I like to occasionally go out for some fun, at times probably more fun than is good for me, but I'm pretty happy staying home reading or thinking about future trips and goals as well. I have some pretty close friends I hang with from time to time, and family that live about an hour away that I visit often. I live pretty simply, but I have a strong feeling that I need to simplify more, so that is sort of a goal right now.

PHILOSOPHY

It's ok to not have an answer for everything.

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I have hiked up four different 14,000 ft. peaks in Colorado. Being a slightly out of shape Nebraskan this is a pretty big feat, at times painful, but well worth it.

I was able to walk around inside the Parthenon, and get a quick education by a preservationist working on the building. Definitely a lifetime highlight for me.
