I am a single father enjoying the last few years my son with be at home. I am a techie at heart and have found a way to make a living doing what I love.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

My son and I will be taking a backpacking trip of Europe this summer. Jordan will be 16 the day we get back and will be getting his drivers license. I want him to as much of the world this summer as I can possibly afford.
The thought was to stay in hostels so that we can get the most of the local experience as possible. We are very interested in staying out of the tourist spots and seeing hose the locals live. I just discovered this site and I think this is an amazing idea and fits exactly what we would like to do.

Interests

I enjoy learning anything tech. My son and I are into dirt bike riding, radio controlled cars and camping.

I am very interested in foreign politics and government. Right now im taking a course on the history of Chinese Government.

I like anything that has to do with music and on the side I do video jockeying as well as video projection mapping for different venues around my home town.

I love travel and get to do a good bit with work. But there is nothing like hitting the road with my son on a road trip.

Music, Movies, and Books

I was raised by a DJ and later became a DJ myself in a much different sense.
My dad was a 50's and 60's DJ and owned several night clubs. I ended up getting into electronic music in the 90's and was a breaks and house DJ before i got into the video side of that scene.
As far as taste in music goes I am passionate about many generas of electronic music, 70's rock, 90's rap, well really too much to list here. I can appreciate classical, jazz and country music but they are the only ones im not passionate about.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Just last weekend I capsized a sailboat in a very unexpected storm in lady bird lake in Austin. It was a very interesting experience as it was horrifying but we just could not stop laughing.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can grill the most amazing steak you have ever put in your mouth.
If by chance the host has a smoker I can also prepare an amazing Boston butt.
