CURRENT MISSION

To spend a year traveling around the world with my wife.

ABOUT ME

I am 32 years old, from a small town in upstate New York and have lived in New Orleans for the last 14 years. I am excited to be spending the next year traveling around the world with my wife.

PHILOSOPHY

Enjoy life. It is always perfect. Even when it doesn't seem like it.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Meeting CS groups, traveling, hosting when I get home.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I grew up in a small town where everybody knows each other. I have been wanting to expand that experience to feel that anywhere in the world. I have hosted many people in New Orleans and stayed on numerous couches along my travels.

Interests

Music - reggae, blues, soul. I have loved Bob Marley since about 7th grade.
Been reading some John Steinbeck lately.
Outdoors - hiking, swimming, rock climbing.
I love summer time. I am planning to spend the next year following summer around the globe.
