About Me

Hello!

My name is Mike. I worked in the audio industry for ten years but always wanted to travel for an extended period of time. In December of 2013, I quit my job, sold my house, car, and everything I owned so that I could pursue my dream of seeing the world.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am back in the states visiting family and friends, who are quite spread out across the country. As travel here can be expensive, I need to save as much as I can. I have found that couch surfers are also travelers themselves, and we are sure to have much in common.
