About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Enjoy the company of people God puts in my life and striving to end the cycle of oppression for those trapped in the sex industry.

ABOUT ME

I was born and raised in Woodland Park, CO, USA in the middle of the mountains and naturally fell in love with exploring all of God's creation and took up sports like snowboarding, rock climbing, white water rafting, mountain biking, hiking, backpacking etc.

My wife, Casey and I enjoy traveling together and truly experiencing the places we visit far beyond the Lonely Planet travel guide.

We welcomed our daughter Chloe into our family in May 2019 and have been enjoying the next adventure of parenthood with her. (As such, we currently can't host surfers with her waking up and screaming in the middle of the night).

PHILOSOPHY

Relationships are the only lasting evidence of a life well-lived.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

We love meeting and interacting with people from all walks of life no matter what race, ethnicity, spiritual background or language barrier (ESPECIALLY language barriers!)
Started hosting back in Colorado and have since hosted lots of surfers in Chiang Mai! I surfed through Europe on my way back to the US.
