A soon to be traveling nurse, big geek, and a fan of cooking. Generally I'm an easy-going guy who can get along with almost everybody.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am interested in travelling and getting to know this community. My friend introduced me to this world and I have seen how friendly, interesting, and freeing it can be.

I'll be working short assignments around the US and will be looking to make connections and occasionally spend the night on someone's couch if something happens with my housing or the assignment itself.

Willing to host, but that will be dependent on the housing I get.
