My wife and I both teach 1st grade (6&7 year olds) which gives us time in the summer to travel. We love the weather in St. Petersburg - from the summer lightning storms to the mild snowless winters. I love using my brain to solve puzzles or build something.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

My wife and I don't just want to travel, we want to travel and meet others around the world. We have hosted over 25 international students from a dozen countries and we love the connections that we have with them. We want to get to know the people, the culture, the behind the scenes.

Music, Movies, and Books

I like alternative music, pop music, EDM.
I like cerebral thriller movies (Like "Us").
My wife and I usually watch comedy shows before bed to clear our minds.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

When I was younger, I was hiking up the mountain in front of my house and found a nest of "dinosaur eggs". I've seen tornadoes and been in hurricanes (and been in an eye of one). My wife has climbed Machu Picchu.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you how to geocache or the American education system.
We want to learn about your country, your culture, your people.

What I Can Share with Hosts

We would share a warm, friendly, humorous conversation as we learn how human we all are.
