About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Trying to learn more about the world we live in

ABOUT ME

Most people call me pretty easygoing. Lived in S. Korea for 3 years teaching at a university, and now work at a naval museum.

PHILOSOPHY

"The world is a book, and those who do not travel read only a page."-St. Augustine

I'm a Christian and I hope that truly shapes who I am and how I act towards others

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I hosted while I lived in Korea, and I surfed during my long trip from Korea to America.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I stayed with some gracious people in Europe a few years ago. Then I hosted some great people when I was in Korea. Now I'm meeting some wonderful people while surfing. It's been a lot of fun and I'm looking forward to meeting many other great people.
