I'm enthusiastic about food, wine, craft beer and find myself to be pretty open minded about trying new things. I love cooking for others but not so much for myself. I'm a super laid back guy that loves to meet new people and hear their stories. I've made a lot of quality friends through traveling and am always eager to make more.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love the idea of sharing in communities. I've both hosted and surfed couches before. I've always had a positive experience. The biggest thing to go in with is being respectful and mindful that you are a guest (or are hosting a guest). Another piece of advice is to always do your best to communicate details beforehand so that there's no bad blood later on.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can a teach your how to climb, how to take a good portrait, how to cook a few of my favourite dishes, and of course, share a good conversation.

A bed or couch, my booze and food and some good laughs!
