About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Explore places, take photos, and drink wine.

ABOUT ME

I've spent the last few years learning the ways of wine, spirits, and beer in the restaurant world in San Francisco and finally have some serious job experience and knowledge. I'm taking some time off for awhile to travel, take photos, and eat & drink delicious things for awhile.

PHILOSOPHY

Be safe, but not too safe.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Traveling isn't always the most affordable thing especially depending on the country. Meeting locals, seeing how they like to do things and exploring the food and drinks of their home is something I'm super interested in. I like share my own experience and history with people however I can.
