CURRENT MISSION

Live, learn, explore, and photograph all that I can along the way. The more of this that's done on my motorcycle, the better.

ABOUT ME

My friends would say that I'm a sometimes shy but very nice guy who loves to explore and is always willing to meet new people. I especially love traveling by motorcycle and exploring out-of-the-way places, and I almost always have my camera on me.

PHILOSOPHY

If it exists, photograph it.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Surfed with one couple in Tupelo, MS, had a great time, and it went from there. Currently on a motorcycle trip from Nashville, TN to Patagonia so am not hosting at the moment, but likely will upon settling in Chile and later upon returning to Nashville.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Have Couchsurfed my way through much of Central and South America, with fantastic results, many friends made along the way, and countless experiences I wouldn't have had without the app/site. Hoping to share the love and friendship with future hosts and guests.
