Didn't get to travel much in my 20s so I'm making up for it in my 30s! Never too late, right?

I caught the traveling bug (it started with Italy and Canada) and now I want to explore the world. I used to work during the summer, but decided I need to reward myself with travels and learn from people across the globe.

I'm a curious gay guy, energetic, mindful, contemplative, and full of wonder.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

For the experience, to see how it is. I've heard so many positive things from others that I thought I'd give it a chance. You have to take risks in life, right?

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Taught over 100 students! As corny and cheesy as that sounds, being a teacher is what I consider an amazing feat. I get these 20-25 students for a year and get to see them grow and progress not only academically but emotionally, mentally and physically.

Teach, Learn, Share

Teach/share:
- I was a camp counselor for years so I learned fun camp games to pass the time and entertain others with.
- Origami: I know how to make basic things out of paper like a cup, flower, animals and other cute things!
- Stories: I've got a lot... I can talk your ear off!

Learn:
- Open to learning a lot of things, especially phrases in your native tongue.
