About Me

Looking to make new friends

ABOUT ME

I have lived in lots of places but am currently enjoying Augusta Georgia.
I was born in Colorado USA I have visited all 50 states in the USA and lived in 7 of them. I have also explored most of Canada, Mexico and the Bahamas. I spent a summer in Ireland and Scotland and fell in love with the area. I have also lived on the Isle of Man and spent a year and a half in Genova Italy. Love to travel but am happy to finally be putting down some roots.
I am a financial software expert and own an online business that helps small business owners with their AI needs.
I am single with no kids and a non-smoker and love to cook and help out in any way needed during my surfing. I love to go to the movies too.

PHILOSOPHY

Life is only what you make of it and why not do what you love and the greatest adventure in life is getting to know as many people as I can in places around the world.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I am looking forward to having many visitors in my home and really enjoyed hosting while in Italy and Malta. Would also like to meet new people when I travel for both work and fun.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I meet great friends CouchSurfing from all over the world. I host many last-minute surfers since my schedule isn't always known ahead of time. I have been a guest in several locations and really like that feeling of being a visiting local vs a tourist.
My one rule on hosting is I only host those that host others. This is an exchange, not a free hotel. Some exceptions can be made so contact me. I have been fully vaccinated,

Interests

Travel, photography, old cars, music, movies, and nature. I belong to several boardgame groups and have a large collection and hope to gather like-minded people to have friends around the world when I go traveling again.

Music, Movies, and Books

All movies except Horror. Love all music except rap. I read both fiction and non-fiction at a rate of 4-6 books a month. I like the romance novel and the thriller and always have belonged to book clubs to get new book ideas. I love to write also so reading is a key part of that.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Rebuilt a 1939 Lincoln Zephyr car from ground up. Been to all 50 states of the USA and most corners of the British Isles. Remade my life when it didn't fit what I wanted it to be so now love life and live it followings my passion.

Teach, Learn, Share

Love to teach others the things I love. Photography, video, crafts, art, games, and anything else they want to know that I have to offer. I am always learning new things and the best of both is to find people that share your passions and can work together.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I am happy to help and clean up after myself. I have always left with an open invitation to come back.
