About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Hoping for a combination of NOLS and sailing in the Carribean... trying to make it happen

ABOUT ME

I'm a laid back guy who enjoys the outdoors,and the comfort of the indoors as well. I usually get along with everyone I meet. I teach SCUBA diving and have taught other outdoor activities to adults and kids... to I am patient, listen well, and like for everyone to be happy.

PHILOSOPHY

You are where you should be, doing what you should be doing, otherwise you 'd be somewhere else doing something else.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Have a good friend, Koji, who I met in a motorcycle class. We ride, bbq, and hang.

At the Boulder Chamber of Commerce, where I used to work, met Will who was in the middle of an inspiring trip across the country and back on his motorcycle.

Went to a mixer down in Denver, met some great fellow couch surfers, and had a great time.

Basically, a novice!

Interests

Good drink, food, company, and surroundings. Climbing, skiing, scuba, cycling, motorcycling, sailing, camping, martial arts...

Traveling light, taking the road less traveled, finding the beauty that is out there... awe, isn't that cute! :)

Teach, Learn, Share

I have a lot of random knowledge, just like most people... I'd love to learn from others and hopefully share something as well.
