The big chill (actually more tall and skinny) I am an adventuresome individual with a passion for new experiences- whatever form they maybe. New ideas, controversial topics, religion, politics (Trump?) feel free to ask, everyone should have an opinion and an open mind to hear others perspectives on life and the patience, understanding, perspective to listen. Curious now? Outdoor activities, I am game. Finding hole in the wall foodie places, I am game. Going out for city walks, I am game. You name it, I am...

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

The better question is why not? I am new to the couch surfing world however I consider myself more a citizen of the world and have lived, toured, camped and adventured my way around. I think couch surfing is a better way to understand the local culture and understand the people and find the best food!

Interests

All things travel, bike packing, touring and mountain, snowboarding, adventure sports, canyoning, and basically all related outdoor sport. Competition of nearly any sort. I am a fan of food! Any and all sorts. I have a rule that I will try anything once. Test me!
