Hello! My name is Kurt and I'm American! I grew up in Texas but moved to New York in my late 20s. I did not know a app like this existed till last month. I must be getting old! I could had save a lot on expenses from my past travels! Haha! So I have a simple goal! And that is to visit each continent at least once.

I then already visited Asia and know where I'm going next! COVID had put a stop to my travels so now perfect time to start traveling again since it got better. And also yeaaaa to no more masks! Haha!

I travel when I can so I can experience the world personally and not just see it on TV. You really can't form a true opinion on other cultures and lives till you experience it yourself to understand them better. When you actually been around people from other cultures sometimes you learn that people are just surviving to live and not living.

My friends would describe me by saying "Trying to catch Kurt is like trying to catch the wind!" And my family would say "Kurt want to experience everything under the sun!" That's their opinion of me. But I feel like until we truly gain understanding of others. We'll never know who a person truly is...

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

When I was on a flight traveling to Los Angeles I perform CPR on a traveler who was choking on the food they offer us. Funny enough when I help him he made a joke saying it was cause the food was bad so that's why he started choking.😅

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm willing to teach others how to improve their English! I want to learn how others feel about their own country and culture. I want to share my life experiences.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can offer them gift on arrival to show my appreciation for hosting me and also discuss living expenses. But mostly important I can offer understanding and a friendly personality to them!
