My name is Barrington Scott, 32 🏳️‍🌈, originally from New York, but I have been traveling around since 2017. I'm a marine veteran, travel photographer, scuba instructor, freediver, seasoned culinary professional, author, and adventure traveler.

I have set my sights on a remarkable goal: To dive on all seven continents, aiming for the fastest completion time and securing a coveted spot in the Guinness World Records.

I'll begin this journey in Oct/Novemeber. It'll take around 3 weeks to a month if everything goes well. I'm hoping to connect with some really cool people along the way!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I hope to gain cultural experiences through meeting new people around the world.
