About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Travel the continents

ABOUT ME

I live in upstate NY, but I love exploring around the area. I like to get to know people and their perspectives on things. I prefer quiet bars instead of loud ones.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Meet people from all walks of life with an open mind

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have attended a local CS event. I surfed the western side of Europe and it was awesome, most of my trip highlights came as a result of surfing.I spent almost a month in Kenya on my host's bed, the most amazing experience yet.

I have hosted many wonderful people

Interests

I like playing recreational sports with most of my experience coming from basketball and volleyball.
I like cooking new things, especially desserts. I also love trying new food, both homemade and at restaurants.
I enjoy the occasional hike outdoors.
I snowboard when conditions are good.
Keeping my orchids alive

Music, Movies, and Books

I like so much variety in books and movies it is hard to state specifics without feeling like I am giving a limited perspective. I like unique stories, but explosions are an adequate substitute.

If you are really interested in my movie taste, I have a cycling list of my top 100 which I update frequently.
Random Sample #8 Jurassic Park, #43 Disney Jungle Book, #34 Blue Streak, #60 Pitch Black, #19 Die Hard, #95 Casablanca

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Staring a Hippo eye to eye while sitting in a Kayak.

Teach, Learn, Share

I am hardly a master in any discipline. Still, I try to substitute depth with breadth. I'll be happy to share anything I know and learn anything you would be willing to teach

I can teach technical aspects of photography. Things like composition are subjective and harder to teach... (and learn🤔)

Countries I’ve Visited

Bolivia, Brazil, Brunei Darussalam, Canada, Chile, France, Germany, Indonesia, Kenya, Laos, Malaysia, Peru, Philippines, Portugal, Spain, Taiwan, Thailand, United Arab Emirates, United States
