Well I am a thirty year old guy. Most of my life I have worked hard but a year and half ago I decided to leave my busy life behind and travel the world. Since then I have been to most of central america, couchsurfed and drove from england to mongolia with six awesome people and then traveled by horse through mongolia for five months. I am now continuing my travels south. I have couchsurfed a lot but always using the account of a friend which is why I have no references.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Well I was introduced to couchsurfing years ago when traveling through the US by motorcycle. After that I was reintroduced when traveling through eastern europe, kyrgyzstan, Kazakstan, Russia, and Mongolia. I love the couchsurfing community and the philosophy. In half ayear or so i will have an actual home and look forward to hosting. For me couchsurfing is not about saving money from hotels, its about exploring culture and meeting friends. I would still couchsurf if I had to pay for it.

Interests

Travel mostly. I like to travel by horse, motorcycle, or car usually. I am currently on a trip all the way around the world without the use of planes. Also, I am a certified divemaster and love to live near the water and explore the ocean.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I once skydived into the ocean donned with scuba gear. I cut my parachute prior to hitting the water and immediately decended into the depths. I fully donned my scuba gear once subsurface and then went down on a nice dive. (I have actually done this twice)

Teach, Learn, Share

Well I love to teach scuba though that really won't help couchsurfing hosts much. I also love to learn languages wherever I go and love to exchange language learning conversation.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I would love to share interesting conversation, philosophy, and culture, as well as language. My favorite thing to share is stories, especially about adventures and traveling. Also I love to share food and cook, I love to cook an american meal and also learn how to cook local meals with hosts. Also I am quite handy and love to help out if anything is needed.
