About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Dreaming up something big. Likely a global motorcycle tour, east to west I suppose.

ABOUT ME

I'm a single man, working on learning more about myself every day. When I'm not working on me, I like to work on my motorcycles. If you're riding a bicycle or motorcycle, there's plenty of safe, secure space for you to park in the garage.

I have a washer/dryer if you need to get some laundry done while you're here, so feel free to ask.

MY PHILOSOPHY

Be gentle. With yourself and others.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I'm offering a sleeper sofa for short stays of a couple nights at most. The light-rail is a short walk from my apartment. Shopping and restaurants are walking distance. Being that I'm not the partying type, I'm more likely give you a tour of the city or some friendly advice on what to see in the area. Smoking (outside) and drinking are completely acceptable, just not to excess. I like a clear head when I go to work in the morning.

Interests

Attention bicyclists and motorcyclists!

I'm fascinated with any two wheeled mode of transportation. I love and have a few motorcycles and bicycles myself. If you are coming through on a bike (motorized or not) and need a safe, secure, place to work on your ride, this is a good house for that as I have a well stocked garage.

Music, Movies, and Books

Too many to list. I love having music on in the background, read a fair bit, and will often turn on a movie as a way to relax in the afternoon or evening.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I spent six months riding my motorcycle from San Francisco, CA USA to Ushuaia, Argentina and back.

Teach, Learn, Share

Teach me what's appropriate in your county, so I may learn how to best present myself when I visit. I'll do the same for you.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I have a lot of tools and room to work on your bicycle or motorcycle.

Countries I’ve Visited

Argentina, Brazil, Canada, Chile, Colombia, Costa Rica, Ecuador, El Salvador, France, Guatemala, Honduras, Italy, Mexico, Nicaragua, Panama, Peru, Spain, Switzerland, Uruguay

Countries I’ve Lived In
