Hi, I'm David. Originally from Michigan, I find myself quite often out west. This is my first time using couch surfing, but have been using Warmshower.Org since 2014. Lots of reviews there, just ask for a link if you would like to read those. I've traveled alot by bicycle (one 4 month long solo trip, one 15 month trip with a friend) across North America. Currently I'm working on the Mt Hood National Forest in maintenance and Wildland fire. Looking for hosts/ppl to meet when I travel to Seattle, Vancouver, or other places during my free time. Thank you!!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Tired of paying too much for 6 hours of sleep, looking to meet locals and fun folks, or just listen or exchange stories. I love seeing how others live!

Interests

I define myself as a maker and really enjoy the challenge of designing something, and then building it.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've built several bicycles and loved on one for 15 months.

Teach, Learn, Share

Machine work, fabrication, repair work, maintenance, bicycle building, welding, too much to list?:)

What I Can Share with Hosts

Any of the above tech, learn, share section advice or input. I also have a bachelor's in political science and climate change. Pretty experienced and handy when it comes to the above mentioned stuff, as well as loving in wilderness. Not good at editing or data entry. Just ask and I'll give you a straight answer :)
