Single guy who likes learning new things and going new places. I've recently discovered the term to describe someone like me (thanks, Séamas Hoyaux!), it is Third Culture Kid. If you google that term, you'll learn a lot about my true culture.

I've visited 11% of the world so far! So much left: http://traveltip.org/visited.php?joshuahilbig

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

My work is at home, so I have a lot of time to get to know my surfers. My place is clean and warm.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I love meeting and hosting people! I hosted hundreds of couchsurfers when I lived in Armenia. Now that I'm in Ecuador, I look forward to continuing to meet and host.

Saving money is great, but meeting new people and learning new cultures is the best reason to couchsurf.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Only one!?! :) Backpacking in Japan was something else, but the one that I treasure the most is hiking though the Amazon and living with the natives for weeks at a time.

Teach, Learn, Share

I'll help you practice your English, Spanish, or Portuguese, or teach you how to make your favorite cocktails. B-) Sounds like a great evening!

What I Can Share with Hosts

Show me some bottles, and I love creating any cocktails that you can request.
