I'm a 25 year old male from the USA. I grew up in Illinois but have lived in Missouri, New Hampshire, and Washington before I moved to Brisbane, Australia for the past year. I enjoy traveling, reading, computers, cooking, and staying active. My goal through traveling is to meet and learn about the people and cultures that I share this world with and to understand the bigger picture of what it is to be a part of it.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Traveling through Asia on a budget and would love opportunities to spend time with local folks sharing stories, experiences, and culture. I want to learn about your lives and share my story with you.

Thank you,
Jeff

Interests

I love to cook and share that experience with others. I'm happy to introduce hosts to some of the many different styles of food America has to offer, some of which even approach being healthy. I also enjoy having a great conversation and learning what I can about those I meet.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Made an impromptu move to Australia with nothing but a few thousand dollars and built a stable life!

Teach, Learn, Share

I want to learn about all of the different sorts of people and cultures that I share this world with. I'm always happy to learn about you, your culture, your country, and anything else you're interested in sharing.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I love to cook and am happy to share American cuisine with those interested, especially if there's a charcoal grill to work with. I like to swap stories, share experiences, and answer questions about travel to America or anything of the sort. I can also help out with basic plumbing problems if you have one of those! If there's anything else you may want or need, just ask and I will do what I can to help!
