Hello! I'm an expat teaching music at the American International School of Kuwait. I grew up in Minnesota and taught there fo several years before going into software development. Then I came back to teaching and moved to Kuwait. I have biked for many years and enjoy long rides.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

When I travel by bike I need a place to stay in the evenings.

Interests

Music, Movies, and Books

I'm into jazz, rock and classical and everything in between. I love action adventure movies and mysteries as well. Most of my reading is on-line these days so not a lot of books, except I'm a Dan Pink fan.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I biked across Kuwait - from the Iraq boarder to the Saudi boarder.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can play all of the brass, woodwind and percussion instruments badly. Trumpet is my main instrument and you might like how I sound on that.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I have great stories of the Middle East.
