Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I hope to travel the world one day, and I think couchsurfing is an excellent way to learn the cultures of the areas I visit. I'm interested in more than just seeing the tourist sights. I want to experience the country. If I could help out by offering a place to sleep to others who are doing the same thing, I'd love to be a part of that. I have plenty of empty room in my house, so why not use it to help others.

Interests

Right now, I'm thinking about learning to play the piano. Mostly, you'll find me at work, church, or hanging out with my kid. Occasionally on weekends, you might find me playing bingo or attending basket auctions.

Music, Movies, and Books

I like many types of music, but most often I listen to contemporary Christian music or American pop music, and my next favorites are country music and classic rock. For movies, I prefer romantic comedies. I definitely don't like corny comedy movies (I'm talking about you, Dumb and Dumber), and I don't like anything with too much sex or foul language. My favorite book is Pride and Prejudice, but I'll read almost any kind of love story.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Skydiving was pretty intense. I loved it, but now that I have a kid, I wouldn't do that again.
