CURRENT MISSION

I recently relocated to Seattle as of July 2016. Would love to meet the local community and explore the city! Check out local breweries, coffee shops, local food scene, watersports, check out places that are dog friendly, hiking, let me know!

I just sold my Wakeboard boat before my move, so I'd love to get back out on the water to wakesurf or wakeboard, so if any of the locals are down for me to join them out on the water, please let me know!

Im president of Rain City, the LGBT soccer club in Seattle with over 300 members. Message me if you'd like to join!

I try not to take life too seriously and enjoy every moment. I'm witty (at least I like to think so), always smiling and joking around, and like to just have a good time with honest, fun people.

I love to cook, play sports, go to local events with friends and travel

I don't mind hosting people. But if you're looking for that one night to crash on someone's couch, that's probably not what I'm looking for. I've traveled the world myself, and I joined this site so I can get to know people, help them with a place to stay and actually hang out. I would love to have you cook for me, share your crazy experiences, and overall just have a good time together. The best way I see it is eventually I could make it your way someday and you could show me around your town as well! I have a pretty decent place, so entrusting someone to be staying with me is of importance to me.

PHILOSOPHY

Live. Love. laugh. :)

Be genuine, kind, honest, and sincere to everyone. Be happy! Life's too share to be bitter and angry :)
