I am a climber, and it is an all consuming part of my life! I dig travelling, definitely don't do it enough, hoping this will spur future adventures- I want to see more of the world and experience diverse cultures. I want to drink more than my fill of the cup of life!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

When I travel for work I get to see very little culture, I want to see more of the local scene, I want to have cultural exchanges. I hope to make my world smaller, build wonderful shared experiences and adventure with locals.

Travel, meeting, collaborating, learning, teaching, growing and making the world smaller is why I am here!
