Current world traveler. Took a leave from work starting April 2016 and have been on the road trying to get around the world. Lover of good beer, American Football, city planning, sustainable energy systems, agriculture technology and occasional politics/economics.

I grew up and live in cities by the water and love the vibe of coastal and harbor cities. I've been improving on my cooking and can make a nice pasta carbonara from scratch (It just takes me a while to prep).

I do not have Zika, despite somehow attracting a lot of mosquitoes :(

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Would love to meet some locals in cities I go through. Share stories of where I come from and where you live. Maybe even find a soft spot to land when I am tired of sharing hostels and need a more personal environment.

Interests

I like to stay pretty active. Not into team sports anymore , and more into crossfit and training half-marathons. Currently I am on the road living out of a backpack, so I'm enjoying that (a lot!) for what it is. My guilty foods are chicken wings and noodles.
