About Me

Hi there! I’m a quiet yet funny, simple yet curious soul, working in logistics (read: orchestrating the behind-the-scenes magic of how stuff gets where it needs to go). Outside of work, I’m an adventure-seeker who loves meeting new people, exploring cultures, and diving into new experiences—whether it’s fishing at sunrise, gaming at midnight, or road-tripping with no set destination.

I value good humor, great stories, and those spontaneous moments that remind you how amazing life can be when you let go of the plan.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Let’s be real—traveling is about more than just seeing places; it’s about connecting with people and sharing experiences. Couchsurfing gives me the chance to step beyond guidebooks and into real life—your life! I’m here to swap stories, learn about your culture, and experience your city the way you see it.

Plus, I’ve found that the best souvenirs are the friendships you make along the way. (Okay, and maybe some local snacks too.)

Interests

Driving: There’s something magical about hitting the road, blasting music, and seeing where the journey takes you.

Fishing: Equal parts peaceful and strategic—because sometimes it’s not about catching fish, but catching a moment of zen.

Gaming: Whether it’s a casual session or an all-night campaign, I’m always ready for an Xbox adventure.

Reading: I’m drawn to books that make me think, spark curiosity, or take me to far-off civilizations (real or imagined).

Traveling: The less planned, the better. I like when trips feel like an adventure, not a checklist.

Cooking: I’m no Michelin chef, but I can whip up something tasty—or at least entertaining.

Music, Movies, and Books

Music: My playlist is as diverse as my interests, spanning rock, country, classical, and traditional music. If it’s got a story or a vibe, I’m listening.

Movies: I’m a proud fan of Marvel, DC, and all things science fiction. If it’s got epic battles, brilliant heroes, or a glimpse of the future, I’m hooked.

Books: My bookshelf is where philosophy meets history. I love researching ancient civilizations, exploring the mysteries of anatomy, diving into the philosophies of nations, and trying to answer life’s big questions (or at least pretending to).

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Once, I drove for 12 hours straight with no plan, no GPS, and no idea where I was going—just me, the road, and a sense of adventure. The reward? A sunrise so stunning it felt like the universe’s way of saying, “This is why you trust the journey.”

What I Can Share with Hosts

The Kitchen: Cooking is one of my favorite ways to connect. Whether it’s sharing recipes or whipping up a meal together, I’m all in.

The Backyard: A cozy spot for conversations, stargazing, or just relaxing after a long day.

Gaming Time: Let’s fire up the Xbox and see who comes out on top (no pressure, but I play to win).

Good Company: I promise laughs, stories, and maybe a new perspective or two.

Curiosity: I’ll bring my full enthusiasm for learning about you, your culture, and what makes your corner of the world special.
