CURRENT MISSION

Enjoy everything life can throw at me!

ABOUT ME

First and foremost, I am a father of two wonder boys! And when I say I love being a father, I mean I love it. Secondly, I am the lucky husband to my beautiful and intelligent wife. We are a young family and wouldn't have it any other way.

Personally, I am an optimistic person looking to meet new people all the time. I can find a good time in anything that I do and with almost anyone. I am very big into music. Mainly I enjoy indie, electronic, and punk, however if the mood is right I can do just about anything! I am admittedly somewhat of a nerd and love discussing intellectual ideas and never shy away from a debate, politics excluded. I am generally an active and healthy person who loves to get outdoors and believe the best part about traveling is the local food.

PHILOSOPHY

Love and friendship are the cures for everything!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I have used CS while studying abroad and have met some wonderful people traveling. I have hosted many people in Baltimore, all of whom I believe had a wonderful time! That was obviously because of me and not cause of my city ;)

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have CS in Ghent and in 2 different places in Amsterdam. All three of my experiences were wonderful with knowledgeable and welcoming hosts. I hope to replicate my experiences for my guests in Baltimore.
