Overview
About Me
A silicon valley tech head. I finally paid off my student debt and now I'm looking to adventure.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
Like most people, I really want to travel, but I would be disappointed with a trip if it was all sight-seeing and no people-meeting. People are the real treasures of any experience, so Couchsurfing seems like a great community to dive into in search of foreign friends.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Quit my job and went couchsurfing! With very little planning.
Teach, Learn, Share
I can teach about computers and programming, how the internet works. I would love to learn some of your language, little interesting tidbits of culture.
What I Can Share with Hosts
A warm smile and a strong back. Seriously, put me to work if you have any.
