About Me

CURRENT MISSION

See as much of the world as possible

ABOUT ME

I am a fun guy that wishes he could be independently wealthy and spend the rest of my life traveling, but I am not, so I travel cheaply. I travel as much as I can and enjoy seeing any new stitch of this world.

I live in Los Angeles and really enjoy the laid back lifestyle and year around great weather.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I can't host, but am happy to meet up for a beer or give you a tour around the great city of Los Angeles.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I tend to travel a lot alone and know how helpful it can be to meet up with a local expert. Many of my trips would have been incomplete without hearing about meeting locals and discussing culture and life in that city.

Interests

I watch a little too much TV, but I like to go dancing, read and stay busy. It is hard for me to sit down for too long. Most of all, I like meeting new people that are living interesting lives.

Music, Movies, and Books

I watch a ton of movies for work. My favorite films are Forest Gump, Slum Dog Millionaire, The Color Purple and Swingers.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Hmmm, tough question. I have survived two earthquakes above 6.0, walked in the Thanksgiving Macy's Day Parade in NYC, did a poor version of the samba in the carnival procession in Rio, rung in the New Year at the Sydney Harbor Bridge, stared in amazement in the Sisten Chapel, attended a knighting ceremony at Windsor Castle dressed inappropriately and had the best ribs in Memphis, Tennessee.
