Hello my name is Richie and like everyone on this website I love traveling and meeting people from different cultures. I learned about this site while traveling alone through Europe and I thought it was a great idea.

I enjoy going to the beach a lot and would probably call it my second home. Also sometimes I can be a nerd because I love nature and learning. That is also why I am interesting in meeting with people which come from very different experiences than my own.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Personally, people from different cultures and different understandings of life are very interesting to me. I learned about this site while backpacking through Europe and immediately saw its value, and it is not limited to free room and board, but extends to understanding of different cultures.

Interests

I am very open minded and will generally try anything once. I enjoy being out in nature and going on bike rides. The beach is also a favorite.

Music, Movies, and Books

I enjoy many different genres of music from dance to country to hip hop to classic rock'n'roll.

Huge movie buff but I generally like movies which involve time travel or some type of twilight zone story line.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Traveled alone 90 days straight throughout Europe. First time abroad. Drove a stick shift for the first time on the Autobahn. Best times of my life.

Teach, Learn, Share

I am very knowledgeable in the sciences due to my nerdiness. Though my favorite thing would be philosophy and its applications on our understanding of what it means to be human.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I have extensive knowledge of the area and can show any visitors a great time hanging out with the locals of south Florida.
