About Me

My wife and I recently escaped the American rat race to travel the world. We live on a sailboat based in Florida but are currently traveling in Europe.

I’m a western Nebraska farm kid turned sailor who loves to join interesting projects with fun people. Kari is a Florida girl who I met in Amman, Jordan while we were both working for an NGO. She recently resigned her fancy tech job to create space to travel. Together we’re excited to explore the world while we search for our next big project in life!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I once captained a white water raft down the Nile river in Uganda.

Teach, Learn, Share

We love sharing our life with others; right now we live on a sailboat and love to take people cruising and share our love for the ocean and islands.

Likewise, we love to learn what inspires others around us. Please show us the things you’re passionate about!

What I Can Share with Hosts

- We love meaningful conversation with people from around the world!
- I’m a former building contractor with extensive experience in landscaping, home renovation, and the marine industry. We’re always looking to help with projects around the home!
-Not to brag, but I think I make a mean cup of American coffee.
