CURRENT MISSION
Exploring California's Bay Area and planning a trip to Europe

ABOUT ME

I grew up in Oregon – that's the state just north of California. I play musical instruments and write software for a living. Composing for guitar and piano is my favorite! I'm musical, humorous, adventurous and accepting.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I began Couchsurfing while traveling Europe in 2010. After losing my wallet between the Hamburg train station and my hostel for the night, I surfed in Berlin, Copenhagen, and Stockholm. I am very glad to have discovered this very engrossing and rewarding way to travel! While at home in Eugene, we have had a few official guests that have reached us via CouchSurfing and countless house guests coming to us from various sources.

Sailing in Copenhagen! Even though I became sick to my stomach.
