Nice guy from the Central Valley (Fresno). I spent several years in the army and served in the Middle East as medic. I'm traveling full-time and working remotely. Also studying herbal medicine. Working on improving my Spanish and Portuguese fluency. Currently in Brazil.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Connect with locals, language learning/exchange, first-hand experience of new cultures.

Interests

I enjoy being out in nature, camping and hiking. I live within 2 hours of beautiful Yosemite and even closer to the magnificent giant sequoia trees. I love the field I work in (psychology and psychiatric-mental health nursing) and love to read related articles, books, websites, etc. I have a 3 year old hyper-as-could-be Labrador-mix who requires a daily walk or bike ride...she's a sweet heart. Also enjoy just lounging out back by the pool with a cocktail, good music, and good company. Enjoy museums, city parks, cathedrals and architecture.
