About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To absorb as much as I can, grow from it, and impart that to others.

ABOUT ME

I love travel and I love meeting new people. They're like drugs for me. I get more into outdoor sports each year and the more I do, the more I want to do! Last year I learned how to wake board and water ski and had some of my first experiences kayaking and stand up paddleboarding. I prefer mountain biking or snowboarding however.
I love cooking and I love eating good food especially in good company. I like to be in large groups so I often host dinner parties and I go out quite often.

PHILOSOPHY

You don't know how much you don't know until you know.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

At the moment I'm not in a position to host but I hope to be soon. While I travel I'd like to have more personal experiences than a hotel. I also want to get more of a feel for the place, nothing's better than having a local around!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

As a coast to coast active and adventure tour guide all over the United States I drove a 15 passenger van with a trailer across the country and through most of the major cities including: San Francisco, L.A., San Diego, Las Vegas, Houston, Washington D.C., and New York City.

I parallel parked that thing in NYC, never thought I would be capable of that!

Teach, Learn, Share

I speak three different languages so I have a pretty good grasp of how they work, I also tutored English for years.

I make all kinds of jewelry as well as things out of clay.
