Hello, my name is Brett & from childhood, I sensed the call to the world to explore & learn from other cultures. I've been living & traveling outside the USA for nearly 20 years, as a student/athlete/coach, photographer/model/actor, teaching languages, working with NGO's & local businesses in whatever way I could. Throughout my journeys, I have been fortunate to meet & make lifelong relationships which have become the main reason(s) why I continue to travel & enjoy the adventure called, life. So, if we meet, may we be better for it & encouraged in each of our own paths.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I, like the rest of you here I suppose, desire to connect with new & inspiring people who are making a positive impact in our world.

Music, Movies, and Books

I enjoy many genres of music, while primarily listening to Portuguese, Spanish, French & English...always a time & place to listen to more.

As the film industry has grown well beyond my knowledge, I've gravitated towards cultural classics that I've yet to have seen.

For literature, I've enjoyed studying theology, history & classic stories.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've aspired to be fully present with my time here on earth.

Teach, Learn, Share
