Hello, I'm Jason. I live in Northern Kentucky just outside of Cincinnati Ohio (USA). I joined this site because I travel a lot with work and thought it might be fun to (both) save money and meet new friends.

Personality wise I am high energy, overly courteous, but not shy to share opinions if asked. I have lived in Japan, Hawaii, and many other states. I own several properties myself, including a small restaurant off in the country-side (about 30-minutes south of Cincinnati. I play guitar, and love to be outside hiking, walking, exploring new places. I am a Christian and prefer religious / highly-ethical people over non. That said, I am NOT a homo-phobe, etc. I am also a bit of a red-neck born and raised, but again NOT a racist/ignorant POS! I have more friends and family of every breed there is,...so come one, come all. 'Nuf said about that - pass the gravy! LOL!

I "prefer" non-smokers, non-pet-owners...~I'm a bit of a germ-a-phobe / health-concerned in that sense. I know this is totally hypocritical, but I do have a small Yorkie...the thing is, I keep her and my place immensely clean, I just don't feel right asking others to be on that same level...~it is what it is....just being completely honest here...I did after all say "prefer".

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Really it's about saving money, and making new friends. There's so much value in connecting with locals who can help you navigate new locations...it's invaluable!

Music, Movies, and Books

Johnny Stat, Paul Gilbert, Billy Gibbons (ZZ Top), anything that is actually good music...Pink Floyd, SRV, etc. I enjoy Comedies and Documentaries over dramas and faux-life fluff. I'd prefer being active rather than reading a book.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Not sure what this question refers to....a couch, or knowledge, or directions?? I'll do my best to be a good host, but I suppose you'll have things you'll be out doing just like myself (at work for example) ...perhaps we'll hang out some, I don't know...play it by ear?
