After working for 5 years in the aerospace industry, I am taking a year off to travel the world. Mostly by motorcycle with my friend Kyle.
I am also into skiing, paragliding and just being in the outdoors.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Looking to meet local people and see what it is like to live in different places around the world - rather than just being a tourist passing through.
I want to see as many little bits of indigenous culture of the world as I can before they are overpowered by McDonalds, MTV, et al.

Interests

Really love to do outdoor adventure sports with my friends.

• motorcycles
• mountaineering
• skiing
• paragliding
• climbing
• whitewater kayaking

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Had a day where we dug a snow cave and celebrated Cinco de Mayo all night, then summited Mt St Helens and skiied down naked the next morning, then went straight to a rave in Seattle that went until the next morning.
That was a good day! Things not usually that wild though.

Teach, Learn, Share

I find it really rewarding to help someone reach outside their comfort zone and find something they didn't know they had.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Curiosity and helpfulness.
