I'm just a 20-something guy trying to learn the world by seeing and doing.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

The best way to learn a culture (and sleep cheap) is to make friends with the locals. Hotels are for work, not play.

Music, Movies, and Books

I like dumb comedies.

I appreciate all music but I can get DEEP into some jazz.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I worked for a company guiding llama pack trips in the wilderness.

Teach, Learn, Share

I love trading travel stories. I can teach you what I know about my area if you ever go. It’s very popular with travelers. I love learning about the history of wherever I go and also eating the local culture. Show me food and museums and I’ll leave happy.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I'll share a traditional Chinese tea ceremony with you! I have some great tea that I love to share. I also like to think I'm a decent conversationalist.
