CURRENT MISSION

Leave this place better than I found it.

ABOUT ME

I've lived on my sailboat in south Florida since 2012 and sailed to the Caribbean three years ago. Got back to home port July 2020 and planning the next trip.

PHILOSOPHY

If you can die happy right now, you've succeeded in life.

Individual liberty above all else.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I mostly host, but whenever I’m somewhere looking for people to hang out with, I join or host a CS event. I’ve also found it a good way to find crew for a sailing trip.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I’ve hosted since I heard about the idea at a party in 2014 and have to vouch for this way of traveling. It goes beyond a free place to stay...it is total immersion in your host's way of life. Haven't met an uncool couch surfer yet. Like hostels, couch surfing is the way to go if you want to be sociable.
