CURRENT MISSION

making sense of people

ABOUT ME

I love good things. Good people, literature, music, coffee, beer, wine, whiskey, food... I play the sax, play hockey, bike...

PHILOSOPHY

I love family, close friends, and high standards. I'm honest with myself to an extreme, self-aware but not too serious, and try to enjoy the time I have with the people around me and when I'm on my own.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I couchsurfed a lot in the summer of 2007 in the Baltics, Ukraine, Republic of Georgia, and Russia. Met some truly incredible people, and am very thankful to them all. Before that, I was fortunate enough to stay with Rivo and his sister in Paris (he's now in Switzerland -- good luck Rivo!).

Most recently, I hosted several people in Madison, WI couchcrash 2013, and am hoping to host more in Madison this year. Get in touch!
