About Me

Conquered the first 30+ years of my life and I'm still alive :) Trying to make the most of whatever life I have left. Never married and no little kiddos of my own yet.

I've had the most fun in life when I'm helping others out. Right now I volunteer tutor teenagers in math. It's simple, and its only for a few hours a week, but the rewards are priceless :)

Life sucks when you only think of yourself.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Usually once every year or two I take several weeks off work and travel internationally. I've learned the best parts of traveling to a different country are the people you meet. Couchsurfing seems to be a great way to meet new people, have a great time and embrace the culture.

Interests

Hiking, beer, Golden State Warriors Basketball, Hip Hop, Volunteering.

I love seeing people succeed in life. Everyone has obstacles to overcome and ways to improve. It's awesome to see people grow.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Haha...hmmm...I'm not sure how to answer this.
I'll at least hook up some beers or dinner :)

Meet me. I think you'll be glad you did.
