Easy going and laid back guy just traveling around. I'm a history teacher, athlete, coach, musician, and cook. Sports include water polo, swimming, surfing, body boarding, running, and crossfit. Yep, all at once. Huge documentary junkie, food lover, and can always appreciate a good drink (alcoholic or non). If you like to run, like food, like traveling, like music, like cats, or like dogs, we're already friends :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I've been told this is an awesome way to get to know people in different cities, immerse yourself in local culture, and dive into new adventures. I've had this account for a while but have never used it. I guess there's a first time for everything.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Climbed to the top of the tallest pyramid in the Maya Lowlands and sang at the top of my lungs

What I Can Share with Hosts

I don't brag about much, but I'm an amazing cook. I'm blessed enough to have had a wonderful family around me that has taught me the ins and outs of cooking. I can do a lot with very little, and hardly use a cook book to whip up something good.

I can also share my experiences in world travel, my introspective take on culture, and most of all, I can share a kind and positive outlook on life.
