Overview
About Me
Hey, my name is Brayden! I'm 29 years old and am for the first time leaving the world of academia as a student and entering academia as a teacher. I am willing to try just about anything, and that willingness has served me well. From meeting friends on here, to discovering new hobbies, to moving across the country and starting a new career!
I love participating in medieval combat such as HEMA, SCA, or Dagorhir on the lighter side of things, and some of my best weekends are viking reenactment campouts.
I'm very happily married and a bit less than a year ago I became a first time father. Having a little girl is as big as any adventure I've ever had; and I look forward to exploring life and the world with her as she grows.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I absolutely love the concept of couch surfing! I think that a lot of media hypes "stranger danger" and makes people afraid of each other. A website like this demonstrates the inherent trust we can have in humanity, and takes an optimistic approach to strangers.
It's a magical world, and I want to go exploring!

Teach, Learn, Share
A little bit of a lot of things, and a lot about a few things.
What I Can Share with Hosts
I love talking and getting to know people. And I'm always willing to share anything I've got on me. I love to cook and am happy to cook for you or with you.
I'm also keen to help around the house (as far as you'd like or let me), and I'm a pretty burly guy, so I'm no stranger to manual labor.
