About Me

UPDATE - We aren't hosting as long as the Covid-19 virus continues to be a factor.

ABOUT ME

I'd like to think I'm a friendly, fun guy who can get along with anyone. Although my career choice (accounting) would be considered boring by most, I've been trying to do a good job balancing work and play.

After stints in Milwaukee, Minneapolis, Princeton (NJ), and northeast Philadelphia, my wife Lindsay (pictured with me at the top of Machu Picchu Mtn) and I moved to England in March 2019 for her job. We'll be in and out, but if you are looking for a host I will gladly help you out if I can! We have an extra bedroom in our rental house, which we live in with our 2 year old son. We also have a couch and some floor space beyond that.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Interests

Ultimate Frisbee is my primary interest; I also enjoy camping, hiking, fishing, sports, cooking/eating, and pretty much anything outside.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can give lodging and/or recommendations for trips into London, which takes about an hour by train and will cost 6-10 pounds depending on the time of day. I generally don't host people who post on the city's wall, so send me a message if you're interested in surfing. It doesn't have to be too in depth, but I prefer hosting people with completed profiles.
