I love to travel and meet new people. I like to keep life interesting, love having new adventures, sharing travel stories and experiencing life. I try to surround myself with positive people, passionate about life, travel and interesting conversation. So far I've traveled mostly in North America and Asia but my list of places to visit is growing. I spent 2 years in Thailand and traveled through a lot of SE Asia, Hong Kong, a bit of China and of course the US, Canada and Mexico and I just got back from living in Korea for 3 years. I've spent most of the last 6 years teaching English in Thailand and Korea after ditching my desk job - was previously in finance and banking. I like going out with friends, checking out new bars, live music, food scene etc. I also enjoy cooking delicious new foods, playing sports, going for a run, mountain biking and bit of rock climbing. Not a heavy drinker but I like to have a good time now and then. Sociable, friendly, easy to get along and I have some good stories I can share. I'd love to hear yours too. And I'm a responsible trustworthy person. I worked at a bank selling financial products and was allowed to teach children overseas so I guess I can't be too bad. Currently living in Portland, Oregon. I don't have a couch at the moment as I just returned from Korea and my house is rented, but I will have a couch to share soon and look forward to meeting some cool people.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I like to travel and make new friends and I really enjoy meeting people from different countries and cultures. Mostly I've stayed at guesthouses or hostels, thought about trying this in the past. I want to travel more and hope to make friends everywhere I go.
