ABOUT ME

I love to travel. I have traveled the world over. I lived in Europe for 8 years and most recently in Mexico for 5 years and am a permanet residence of Mexico. I am now living in Coyoacan Mexico City with my wife who was born in Mexico City. I have three daughters. One who lives in Oregon, one in Mexico City who is going to the university of UNAM, and a 3rd who lives in Florida. I also have done volunteer work overseas with Great Shape for over 5 years in Jamaica and also with Keypod in South America. I also love to cook. I eat very well. I have a positive outlook on life and enjoy living life. I do Yoga 5+ times a week and meditate. I love to ride my ecobici with the government bicycle system in Mexico City.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Volunteered 5 years with Greatshape.com in Jamaica installing computers in school classrooms while meeting the children who wanted to dream about their future and use the computers to study and learn and write business plans for a butterfly area or an organic farm. I have visited all the schools on the island of Jamaica while working as a volunteer.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can share my Spanish, experiences living in Europe and now living full time in Mexico. I also am a great cook so we can shop (or I can do the shopping for us) and prepare great dinners. We can also enjoy going out to a few restaurants together. We can do day hikes. Ride bicycles around the City. I have a rental car so we can do short trips together too.
