Coffee, my road bike and my camp gear are all I need to be happy. Born and raised in the south with youthful roots nourished in NC, SC, GA and FL. I am currently residing in Greenville, SC

Perpetually seeking ways to live a more meaningful life and create value with all my interactions. I have a healthy love for travel and prioritize family and friends. Always in pursuit of new adventures, daring enough to try just about anything and sage enough to learn from the past.

***I have couch surfed several times in the past with friends but have recently made a personal profile. Sadly I haven't had the chance to travel much as of late

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I believe seeing the world and investing in broad relationships is the best route to happiness. I want to enrich my life and the lives of others by making lasting relationships through engaging conversation and shared stories. Couch surfing is an ingenious way of allowing many people to share life, see the world and remain frugal.

Interests

I'm pretty much down for anything outside that involves exploration and a touch of danger. Cycling makes me happy.

Music, Movies, and Books

I like most genres of music except country. Watership Down, Kurt Vonnegut and many more that I'm currently too lazy to think about. I'm actually pretty into podcasts these days.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I recently competed in a full Ironman triathlon.

Teach, Learn, Share

I know a lot of knots and wilderness survival techniques from my scouting days. I'm also a pretty reasonable swimmer. I'm fairly certain I have more utility in this world than those two skills but that's all I've got for the moment.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Stories, life observations, good beer, laughs and a SC state souvenir.
