I am a Peace Corps Volunteer currently serving in Togo, West Africa. I teach English and promote Gender Equality in my village of Agbatitoe. My goal in life is to be a father, raise a family, and have a successful career in International relations/development.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

My best experiences so far while travelling have been with the locals. Through Couchsurfing, I want to experience the cities where I travel through a local's perspective, and I want to discover the hidden gems of the town.

Interests

I come from a musical family. My mother plays the piano, my father the trumpet, my brother the guitar, and myself the drums and recently, the ukulele.

Sports is my religion. I love basketball, football, and volleyball. I would like to be good at soccer one day, but my feet don't seem to agree.
