I love experiencing new things and new places, even if it’s just a new sidewalk.

I love meeting new people and learning about their life experiences.

Pragmatically optimistic.

Pourquoi je suis sur Couchsurfing

The wonderfully unique experiences we can only hope to have by “knowing” a local! (I never would have known how to attempt those local van/buses in Bolivia half full with live poultry by myself….)

Morceaux de musique, films et livres

Music: Baka beyond, and anything from Rachmaninoff to Lil’ Kim’s greatest hits .

I know more podcasts than books these days, for better or worse.

Une aventure extraordinaire que j'ai vécue

Got woken up by Kookaburras at 4am after a night of unparalleled stargazing while camping in the outback.

Enseignez, apprenez, partagez

I was raised Mormon (religious Christian) but gay and the son of the bishop. I learned a lot about people and am still looking for meaning again. I come close to finding it when I do things with my hands, and with family.

Ce que j'aimerais partager avec mes hôtes

Open minded and non judgmental conversations. Intellectual property law (my trade), mental health, travel, art, museums of all kinds, jalapeño margaritas.

I am also an enthusiastic partner for almost (ahem) any activity. Painting a fence? Actively listening? Paragliding? Staring at each other silently for 10 minutes while doing breathing exercises? Rescuing pythons from reptile head hunters in Florida? Picking you up from an eye exam??? Amazing.
