Hi! I am a full time independent contractor. I have used this site several times in the past but not recently. I have stayed in 56 countries including my home, U.S.A.

Please note that this is not a dating site. I am looking to make platonic connections and even friends, but will report any inappropriate behaviour toward myself. Travel-minded individuals are always welcome, even if you just do it vicariously.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Staying with locals is always more enriching than staying alone in a hotel!

Interests

There's not a lot I'm NOT interested in. Discussing politics and religion with others are not my thing though. Let's try to keep it upbeat, folks.

Music, Movies, and Books

Yes.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

The first time I ever used my passport/went abroad was when I packed up 2 suitcases and moved to the Middle East.

Teach, Learn, Share

All who wonder are not lost. But then again sometimes they are and that's okay too.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I have visited a lot of places. I am as American as it gets. If you want to know anything about cities I've been to, maybe I can help. If you want to know the reality of the U.S. and not just what the hype and media is, I can explain that as well.
