I'm a US citizen born and raised but really enjoy traveling! Last year I lived in Mexico working as a SCUBA instructor on a marine conservation base. Now when I am not traveling I am working on tall ships following the wind. I love being outside and working with my hands! I'm fond of wood working (as it goes with wooden tall ships), gardening, anything to do with water and just appreciating the sunshine!!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I will be traveling for as long as i can in Europe and want to make as many friends as we can along the way

Teach, Learn, Share

I am super into learning as much as I can about everything I can! I'm looking forward to self studying architecture while I'm in Europe
Teaching; I taught sailing and scuba diving for two years so anything with knots or wind direction I'm keen to share! I also have been vegan for two years and though I'm not a great cook, I'd love to share some tips!
