CURRENT MISSION

I'm open minded and adventurous. I seek the opportunity to meet others that share these qualities.

ABOUT ME

I work in consumer affairs full time but I have much more broad interests than my current position. I DJ 45s, LPs and MP3s around town every now and then. I live with my girlfriend, Samantha, and our cat, Cobain.

PHILOSOPHY

This is the part where people start talking about being free spirits that love life, people, smiles and are looking to the next horizon. Then they quote something a village elder once told them in a far off exotic locale. Right?

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have couch surfed in Berkley, Boston, Chicago and Baltimore on trips. I have hosted people from out of town before.

Interests

I have experience with non profits and political campaigns but I work for a for profit company now. Sam is a professional photographer and photo journalist. I love to travel, interested in film, music, trains, Hockey, Football, Roller Derby, gardening, architecture and social justice movements.
