CURRENT MISSION

Figure out how to be a lawyer.

ABOUT ME

I'm a lawyer in Seattle and my wife is a physical therapist, but we've lived in lots of different places, most recently Southern Arizona and Portland, Oregon, both of which we adored. We love our dog, hiking, and fixing up old road bikes.

We have a deep passion for the outdoors.

PHILOSOPHY

Work hard, play hard and leave the world better than you found it.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I have always been a couchsurfer, but have rarely been in one place long enough to be a host. I surfed through Europe, and had a great time, and surfed in Boston, except without CS. I was out of it for a while (during which time I lost my whole profile and all my friends and such).

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've surfed on all kinds of couches with all kinds of people. But I have to say, it's not nearly enough. Keep 'em coming.

Most recently, I've been surfing in the American SW, which rules.

I haven't lived in one place long enough to host, but you can bet that when I finally settle down, I'll have a couch or two waiting.

Interests

Outdoorsy stuff, artsy stuff, funny stuff, interesting stuff, tasty stuff.

I like bicycles.

I'm also always interested in learning more things and gaining more interests. Enlighten me!

Music, Movies, and Books

God...there's too many. To name a few: Tom Robbins, Michael Pollan, John Irving, Ted Leo, Feist, Cold War Kids, etc etc etc.

In terms of movies: I love comedies and even action films, but most of all I like movies that make me think.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I biked across Israel with two close friends. It was exhausting, exciting, exhilarating and all kinds of other "ex-" words.
