I love the outdoors, which is why I love San Diego. I like to go offshore fishing, mountain biking, hiking etc. I can fix and build almost anything, it's my hobby. I was a CTT in the Navy for 6 years. My friends call me Payterpedia as I know way to much random information. I can be talkative and like to meet new people and try new things.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I plan on traveling the world for an extended period of time soon, so I wanted to meet people from around the world before hand. I want to get input on where I should travel, as well as advice on using Couchsurfing around the world and travel tips. I would love to share my city and experiences with you, as you do the same with me. Lets go have some fun.

Music, Movies, and Books

I like to listen to Edm, especially while working out or mountain biking. I find it fun to dance to and the concerts are awesome. I grew up with late 90's and 2000's hip-hop, so I will always be a fan.

As far as movies go- I am a big action and sci-fi movie buff. I love most of the marvel and star wars movies. Quentin Tarantino movies as well.

I don't read traditional books, but I am always reading online. I love to learn new things and to be challenged intellectually.

Teach, Learn, Share

I love to learn. Tell me about your experiences, I would love to hear them.

I love working with electronics, woodworking, and metal working. Creating is my passion. If its broke I can probably fix it.
