Traveling Europe for the first time. Born and raised in Portland, but I now work in Alaska as a fisherman.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

For the free place to stay...right?

Extended answer: I think it's an awesome way to meet awesome people which in turn maintains my faith in humanity!

Interests

I truly enjoy conversation. I'm a bit of an orator myself, especially after a beer or two, but above all I love to hear a new face's story!

Isn't that what life is about?

• fish
• culture
• beer
• traveling
• fishing

Music, Movies, and Books

Tarantino, del Torro. Music: Jack Johnson, Ray Charles, The Black Keys, John Mayer, Willie Nelson, Jimmy Buffet, Tracy Chapman, Muse, The Cranberries, ...that's sort of my range.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

People tell me it's neat...it's sort of a drag though if you ask me.

Commercial Fishing in the great blue waters of ALASKA.

In reality it is quite amazing. Whales all around, glaciers, fish, bears, eagles. That sort of thing.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you about my culture. I can learn about your culture. I can share a good time? In a platonic sense of the phrase.

What I Can Share with Hosts

A great friendship! A secret? A handshake.

A moment in time, never to be repeated.
