CURRENT MISSION

Setting up a trip to explore Ireland.

ABOUT ME
I work for an international company who sends me all over the world for installing, maintaining, and repairing large machinery. I often work with my Chinese colleges and have been fortunate enough to spend a lot of time in my second home, Brasil!

I enjoy exercise, movies, sports, motorsports, parks, lakes, hiking... i enjoy any interesting experience exploring new ground! One of the things I miss most about Seattle is the live music so I'm on a mission to find some kick ass music. I would like to couch surf during some free time around Europe and try to gain some language skills at the same time, i'm always up for an adventure!
I like cats and dogs, and any other interesting critter you might have... all animals seem to like me as well, probably because of my laid back attitude.

PHILOSOPHY

No negativity, don't be cynical; enjoy the moment; its never too late, its better late than never; do what you say you're going to do; oh what a tangled web we weave, when at first we practice to deceive; just shut up and kiss her already; I'd rather have it and not need it than need it and not have it.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I have definitely surfed some couches in my day in the states but never at a stranger's house I met on the internet! I'm willing to give any couch a chance after meeting the person for a meal or drink to know they're not some crazy person, at least a few emails back and forth...

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

L.A.;Multiple couches and one night on the beach
Albuquerque NM; Shared the living room with a 6 foot iguana who liked to be pet behind the ears.
Hawaii; beautiful, absolutely beautiful.
Las Vegas; sorry, that one stays in Vegas ;)

Interests

I'll watch any movie once, and I must finish any movie I start. I read all sorts of books and articles but I'm mostly a non-fiction reader.

Currently reading technical mumbo jumbo about my industry.

I love all sorts of music, Mostly listen to Rock and Roll

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Climbed Table Mountain in Cape Town, Seen the House of Mary, Mother of God's last home, I ran around Dubai for one day during a 13 hour layover and raced around to see as much as possible and it all ended with a race back to the plane, hiking around my home town of Seattle is always an amazing sight seeing experience; especially going to Mt Baker for hiking, skiing and snowmobiling.

Teach, Learn, Share

Learn: I enjoy a great conversation and learning about others and their talents.
