I am a part-time stay at home dad with 2 sons. They are the best. My wife is a OBGYN resident at the university. so i have a good amount of time with the kids while she is busy.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To meet folks I can practice speaking with in Spanish.

Interests

I love getting outside with my kids. We go on runs frequently together. I also love learning new board games, as well as playing old favorites. It is one of the best ways to get to know a person. My mid-year's resolution for 2017 is to have conversational fluency in Spanish by the end of the year, finish a season of one tv show in Spanish, as well as read through the first Harry Potter book in Spanish. We will see how it goes.

Music, Movies, and Books

I love Steinbeck, and have read most of his stuff. Science Fiction always surprises with how intriguing it is. Music is very important to me, talking about it, consuming it, and participating in it.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Ran a marathon (twice now!)

Teach, Learn, Share

I would love to speak with someone fluent in Spanish. Practice time with a native speaker would be ideal.

Come hang out with me and my kids some time if you can during the day.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Good conversation! Maybe some coffee or beer.

Countries I’ve Visited
