CURRENT MISSION

Simply put: experience life. Spent most of my life making excuses on why I couldn't/shouldn't travel and I'm done with it...time to make things happen

ABOUT ME

I am adventurous and curious...give me great food, cold drinks, and live music and I'm a happy guy!

I love to get out of my comfort zone - show me something that I'd never find back home!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

This is my first time participating in CS...I've heard great things and figured now is as good a time as any to start.

Visited New Zealand in March 2015. Unfortunately, no CSers has any availability when I was traveling so I was unable to stay with anyone, but had an absolute blast visiting. Now I'm opening up my couch in Baltimore for anyone traveling through.

Music, Movies, and Books

I'm a big music fan. I was raised on bands like The Beach Boys, Three Dog Night, Paul Revere & The Raiders, etc but grew up listening to punk and ska. While I still listen to bands like Bad Religion, Less Than Jake, No Use For A Name, etc my tastes are a bit more diverse now. I love the blues and enjoy a lot of folk and folk-influenced artists.

Shoot me a message and we'll talk more.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've actually performed on the 2002 Vans Warped Tour when I was 17.

In addition to a wealth of knowledge about beer & brewing, I love to cook and would be happy to cook up a meal for you.
