15/06/2022: It's been a while! I'm updating my profile now. What is below is from 2016. :) Since 2017 I've been living in Holland, Michigan and haven't traveled much. In July 2022 my wife Sara and I are traveling to Spain to visit Bilbao and the Basque region. Currently hoping to find someone available to host for a 2-3 nights between July 6-10. Happy to accomodate any goodie-delivery-requests.

CURRENT MISSION

Visiting Canada for a month while I wait for my visa to visit India. My profile hasn't been updated in 10 years. I'm less insufferable now, I swear.

ABOUT ME

I'm very easy-going and sometimes shy, but enjoy meeting new people and going new places. I can walk great distances, content with just taking pictures and touching buildings. I do love a good bar night (I'm no good at dancing, please don't liquor me up to see me embarrass myself trying) and fatiguing myself doing as much as possible in as little time alloted. I'm adventurous but lazy. Just give me a good prod and I'll do anything. I'm fun too, I swear.

PHILOSOPHY

I believe in the nomad sharing stories and learning new ones. I came to Europe expecting my life to be perfect as I imagined it. I realized that it wasn't America making me unhappy, it was my sedentary lifestyle. I have much traveling and life-simplifying to do.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

When I first came to France I stayed w/ a nice family in Toulouse (actually from another site) who fed me very well. I'd like to meet other nice people and host anyone I can.
