About Me

CURRENT MISSION

New Arrival to the Bay Area and completely in love with it!

ABOUT ME

Curious traveler, intrigued by unfamiliar surroundings and relishes stepping out of comfort zone. I want to be a curator of life experiences. I spent the last 7 months travelling mostly around the US and ended up visiting 28 National Parks through 21,000 miles across the country.

I hope we'll get to know each other in person as I'm interested in so many things it's hard to sum up but they include science, technology, aviation, space travel, traveling, music, writing. I am avid listener to public radio and don't watch a lot of TV (just SNL, Family Guy once in a while on Hulu). I don't really watch sports but am an avid hiker, mountain and road biker and hope to be getting a pilot's license and start hang gliding and rock climbing more soon.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Just moved to the Bay Area in California and right now looking for a place to crash while I start a new engineering job and look for a place in the East Bay.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I usually crash while in transition like now. Haven't done it so much traveling yet but I plan to in the future! And obviously look forward to hosting once I find a place of my own.

Interests

Spending time outdoors, outside my comfort zone and trying to live an extraordinary life. See description too.
