I am a born and raised New Yorker, former Boy Scout and Navy Officer. Got introduced to traveling by the Navy and from there discovered Couchsurfing. I was stationed in Japan for four years and have seen most of Asia. Now working on Europe. I’m quite pragmatic and like seeing what different countries do well. I enjoy identifying patterns in history, human behavior and life.

Note: I am not interested in nudist or gay lifestyles on here.

I place a very high value on integrity, honesty, humility and respect. I am a straightforward person and prefer difficult truths over comforting lies. I understand that not everyone likes this though.

I run my own very early stage startup and also am building a YouTube channel for an amazing video game that teaches people about human nature, discipline, life, stoicism, investing, leadership and teamwork.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To meet new people and learn about the world through my own eyes as opposed to the biased views of news corporations.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Founded a Healthy Fast Food Startup. I’m building it right now, though it is still in it’s very early stages. Social media links below if you are interested in checking it out. There is very little on them because I am primarily working on production and product development right now. Have not spent much time on marketing.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you about my culture and interests (there are many). I would like to learn about your culture, country, life story and future goals.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I’m not looking for hosts on couchsurfing because I don’t like taking things for free. I’m on this app to meet people, chat and learn about different cultures and perspectives.
