CURRENT MISSION

Heading out soon to travel around South America (Ecuador, Peru, Bolivia, Chile, Argentina and maybe Colombia)

ABOUT ME

Grad School Graduate, back in Austin, Texas after travelling for the first half of 2010. I've been a Social Worker for about 5 years, working in affordable housing in Austin for a local non-profit. Life is pretty good. I don't see enough live music, but i try. I have lived in Austin, TX for 13 years, but I'm originally from the Boston area. I have a goofy little cross-eyed bulldog named Lilly. I do not own a car. Bikes all the way.
We are getting ready (my girlfriend Maggie and I) to travel around South America in the second half of 2016 to volunteer and learn Spanish.

PHILOSOPHY

just try to be good to the people around you and hopefully leave the place a little cleaner than the way you found it

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I have hosted CS in my apartment before in Austin, but it was through my roommate's profile. I finally decided to make a profile of my own, since its time I do a little surfing of my own...

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have hosted a handful of people in Austin, TX from all over, which made me want to join up. I surfed across the Republic of Georgia and Turkey in the summer of 2010 and had nothing but great experiences.

Intereses

Street art stencils, drinks and conversation, learning how to cook food from your country, working on and riding bikes.

Algo increíble que he hecho

I woke up in my hostel one morning in Cappadoccia, Turkey to a strange sound, walked outside at sunrise and saw over 40 hot-air balloons floating over the surreal landscape. one of the highlights of my life.
