I traveled around the world more or less full-time for a little over 10 years and now based mostly in Texas. Travelers welcome. My schedule changes often so last-minute requests are typically better.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I spent many years sleeping on someone else's couch almost every night. I now prefer to host more than I surf. I've gotten to know so many amazing people from Hawaii to Prague to New Zealand to Amsterdam. I've shot skeet in the backwoods of Georgia and attended a royal wedding of a prince in Denmark - all because of the people I met through this organization. Some of my best friendships and connections have sprung up as a result of CouchSurfing.

Interests

I'm a full-time photographer and love my job.

Music, Movies, and Books

A Chinese proverb says "it's better to travel 1,000 miles than read 1,000 books" but I love to read. Current favorite book: Jitterbug Perfume. I love maps and planning new adventures. Pearl Jam, Pulp Fiction, The Wire - all brilliant.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've been invited to (and attended) a 50th anniversary party in Denmark with people I just met, spent Christmas with new friends from all around the globe in the Australian outback (and twice in New Zealand), hitchhiked thousands of miles on 4 continents (once in a full Winnie The Pooh costume, of course), and filled in as a last minute sound board engineer at a concert in France (also for someone i had just met). Every day is truly an adventure.

I'd like to take your portrait. I'd also like to learn more card tricks.
