About Me

I am traveling through Canada and all over Europe with my girlfriend Megan, we're both super low maintenance and will spend a lot of time exploring the city, hiking and museums. Always open to recommendations and guidance!

I'm 26, love the outdoors but could potato the heck out of a couch.
Nerdy guy that can reenact whole scenes from tv shows and knows the entire "Hamilton" soundtrack by heart. (AKA undiagnosed asperger)

It feels weird to be making the switch from host to surfer. I had a great time hosting over the past few years but now it's my turn to travel!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I care for human connection, learning to be more outgoing. I've been an introvert my whole life and I'm trying to change that.

For travel: I usually travel alone, having a local to talk to about their city and show me the little things they know about it improves my trip many times over.
Many more countries to come!

For hosting: Living alone can get a bit lonely.
I love cooking and baking but can't eat it all by myself.
I want to meet travelers and share stories, learn how to play guitar and practice French.

Interests

Gamer, Avid DnD player and DM
Theater nerd

A bit obsessed with tree planting, in winter I'm kind of a couch potato mostly doing school work.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Seeing the sunrise after a long sleepless stormy night in a tent that was not waterproof one bit.

I also planted 450,000 trees

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm a minimalist, or at least trying to be.

Freetarian (vegetarian but will eat if it's in front or me/will go in the bin otherwise) and an environmentalist.

Try never to judge a person by their beliefs and where they come from

I am a great listener and I tend to give good life advice

What I Can Share with Hosts

I am a GREAT cook, I've done some traveling and I know my sciences.
Extremely low maintenance and clean.
I always invite my hosts for a meal at their favorite place in the city

Basically I can provide a nice conversation and good company.

Austria, Belgium, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Bulgaria, Croatia, Czech Republic, Egypt, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Italy, Jordan, Netherlands, Scotland, Slovakia, United States
