About Me

CURRENT MISSION

to learn about the world and figure out how I can make it better

ABOUT ME

I'm a mellow, easy-going guy. I try to never turn down an adventure, even if it's in my own backyard. I like talking to people about the world and what they believe.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I've met a lot of great people both in Boston and while traveling. Unfortunately, I haven't had the opportunity to host anyone, but I've picked up the occasional traveler at the airport or met them around town.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

During my year off I had some great hosts:
Cuenca, Ecuador
Trujillo, Peru
Australia
Nha Trang, Vietnam
Shanghai, China

Interests

I like aviation, diving, film, cooking, organizing things, and intelligent discourse. I'm a connoisseur of obscure hobbies (juggling, archery, unicycling), but never manage to master them.

Music, Movies, and Books

Books: I used to read lots of fantasy and sci-fi as a youngster. The Wheel of Time series are still my favorite books. Now I lean mostly toward non-fiction.
Movies: I'll watch just about anything.
Music: I'm a bit of a square here, I'm afraid.

Teach, Learn, Share

I know just about everything there is to know about ice cream. I can also, uh....say the alphabet backwards, and, um....list all 50 states in less than 30 seconds. Yeah.
