My formative years where greatly influenced by my grandmother's love of travel, and desire to learn and interact with societies outliers. This has made it very easy and many times preferential to travel solo, which has facilitated a more engaging and didactic experience with few inhibitions.

People describe me as a curious risk-taker, a foodie-not food snob, a world-traveler, one who is always on-the-go, a problem solver and an animal loving outdoorsman.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

The Four Seasons is nice for sure, but couchsurfing provides a better opportunity to immerse in local culture, and allows more time on the road. Meeting new people over my years of travel has forged some friendship that are among my most cherished.
