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.

我为什么加入 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….)

音乐、电影和书籍

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.

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

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

教，学，和分享

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.

我可以与沙发主分享些什么

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.
