About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Eek every bit of joy, love and fun out of this experience of life.

ABOUT ME

Friends would say I enjoy life. I'll find fun, or better yet, create fun, in all moments. Sure, fun is easy to find at a Dave Mathews concert, but I can find it at an insurance seminar or changing a flat tire. It's life, might as well enjoy all the moments.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Even if can't travel the world right now, I can dream, so it's nice to have accommodation options.

Interests

I spend my time writing, editing and making film. I also enjoy hiking, bike riding, creating, dinner with friends, baseball games, photography, dancing and live music.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Best bike rides: tie between a ride that started in San Francisco, took me through the city, the Presidio and over the Golden Gate Bridge into the Golden Gate National Recreational Area; and a solo ride on the north side of Lake Tahoe.
My top moment had to be a whale watching trip to the Gulf of California. Flew down on a buddy's F-180 to not even a town but a collection of houses. On our last trip out in a Zodiac, the guide cut the engine and we drifted within 50 feet of a Grey Whale and her calf. While the mother watched closely, the baby came up to the boat and played with us for a half an hour, jumping from one side of the boat to the other. I couldn't believe I was going to pet a whale when it first rose under us, and when it did breach the calf covered me in whale snot and sea water from its blow hole. Just the best.
