Looking to meet new friends and explore different cities. My partner and I recently moved to St. Louis. I’m a sociologist and professor, so I am always interested in learning about and from other people and cultures.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'd like to explore new places and meet great people. I want to see a new city from the point-of-view of a local. I want to meet locals as well as fellow travelers who would show me the secrets of their cities and share experiences with them.
