Collector of Experiences. I'm an active kite boarder and wing foiler, mountain biker and skier. I like a well crafted beer. I like to cook. I'm semi-retired, run a boutique hotel part time and travel a lot in a camper-van.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I like meeting people...and sharing experiences. I'd rather stay at a youth hostel and hear about all the adventures that wayward travelers are having than stay at a five star hotel where people might not relate that way. My nephew told me of many great experiences that he's had Couchsurfing, and now I'm meeting interesting people and enjoying the Couchsurfing experience.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Met a cool kid half my age on the beach in Mexico in '08 that ended up traveling with me to Belize and Guatemala for a few weeks in my VW camper van. He invited me to visit his casa in Chiapas just yesterday. Great kid!

What I Can Share with Hosts

I like to work as a team, and don't show up empty-handed. I love creative cooking.
