I'm a very optimistic person and tend to laugh myself through most situations. I plan to spend the rest of my life learning and traveling.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I think couchsurfing provides a much more authentic experience of the city or town that I'm visiting. Aside from being a more budget friendly way to travel, the experiences to be gained and people to meet are priceless.

I did a bit of couch surfing in New Zealand and hope to do much more on my upcoming trip to Europe this spring!

can't host at the moment but hope to some day

Teach, Learn, Share

I think we learn something from everyone we meet whether we realize it or not and every day presents new learning opportunities.

I shoot and edit video for a living and I would love to share this passion with people I meet during my travels.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I hope to share my cooking skills, enriching conversation, cultural insight, and many laughs with hosts who are gracious enough to welcome me into their homes.
