Hard working guy that is in an occupation that requires a lot of travel. I love to explore and meet new people as well as expand my own knowledge of the things around me. I have a beautiful girlfriend named Julie that travel with me sometimes, but she is currently in Spain so, unfortunately, I am currently traveling alone. I am also a student online pursuing my Bachelors in Intelligence with a minor in Math.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am here because I am on a budget, just like every other 21 year old; however, I have also heard that couchsurfing can provide not only a place to lay your head for the night but also help you see what there is to observe in the surrounding areas. I would love to get a local's perspective on the area. And one day when I settle down, I will offer my couch up to anyone else traveling the world.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I had the opportunity to serve my country and deploy overseas. While overseas, I had the opportunity and work with local nationals and get first hand experience to the good that the United States is providing to the Middle East. I have shared many teas with Iraqis and Afghans talking about family, love, and war and how it shapes us.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I am polite and have often been called a gentlemen. I would love to help with dinner or even cook myself and whether I cook or not, I am doing the dishes. I believe that I should earn my stay in every instance someone else allows me to stay in their humble aboad. I am willing to help in any shape or form. Additionally, I have a pretty wide sense of humor and can come equipped with a few Laffy Taffy jokes as well as stories from my own adventures. Lastly, I can offer a lending ear and listen to anyone else's stories.
