About Me

Traveling and seeing as much as I can, in between that pesky "work" stuff

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Seeing new places and meeting new people whenever I can. Tried traveling alone- definitely not as much fun, but my work schedule tends to dictate my travel. Have met some awesome people while CSing, definitely planning to host once I get back to the states.

Music, Movies, and Books

Rock, EDM, Metal, traditional, classical, jazz... Unheilig, Poets of the Fall, Volbeat, One OKRock, Ulfuls,

Bourne movies, District 13, just about anything...

History books have taken up most of my pleasure reading time, into Kamakura Japan now.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Saw Iguazu falls from Brazil, Paraguay, and Argentina in the same day. Skied the Swiss Alps.

Teach, Learn, Share

Happy to learn and curious about people's stories. Willing to teach and share any of the odds and ends of fieldcraft, leatherwork, or stories and culinary experiences from hither and thither.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Sweet stories of the lands beyond and under, some things to try, many more things NOT to try, and some cool little skills. Joy in the paractice of arts and crafts as an adult (leatherwork).

Countries I’ve Visited
