About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To play all over the world, and to play with people when they come to San Francisco.

ABOUT ME

I am a good times specialist, specializing specifically in especially good times. I've spent a great deal of time traveling, and have lived in Australia, Belgium, Thailand, Hawaii and San Francisco.

I have great lust for life, and love to play outside. I love to experience other cultures, and eat all of the delicious dishes.

PHILOSOPHY

"Life moves pretty fast. If you don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it." - Ferris Bueller

He is a wise man, that Ferris. Live it up while the going is good, and have a ball. Never say no to a new experience.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I've both hosted and been hosted, and love the idea of sharing your city with travelers. At the moment, I'm only available for coffee or a drink, but would love to share this town with you.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've been very lucky to have been hosted by great people, and to have had wonderful people stay with me. I love that this is an intentional community where people share their homes, their cultures and experiences.
