I enjoy backpacking, climbing, running, and playing guitar. Currently training for my 4th marathon in Portland. My wife, Anna Killmeier (also on CS) and I just moved to Corvallis so we're new to Oregon. We like to explore somewhere new each weekend. I also work from home so I'm flexible with hosting and showing you around.

Very goal-oriented and enjoy meeting others who inspire and are doing good in the world - Couchsurfing has been a gift.

"There is nothing noble in being superior to your fellow man; true nobility is being superior to your former self." - Ernest Hemingway

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

There's so much goodness in the world - I'm not going to live it in a bubble.

教，学，和分享

I can teach you how to play guitar, bass, mandolin, and some ukelele. I prefer finger-picking and folk styles but can play anything.

I can teach you about backpacking, camping, and climbing. I know how to tie many knots and their uses.

I can teach you how to make a killer Bloody Mary (pun intended).

I can teach you the pros and cons of Southern culture and tradition. We are a diverse bunch.

I want to learn about your culture and what you like to cook. I'm always wanting to become a better musician so jam sessions are my thing.
