ABOUT ME
In 2010, I finished up a 3.5+ year trip from Alaska to Tierra del Fuego on bicycles. www.ridingthespine.com/main.html
Worked in the oil fields for a bit, traveled to New Zealand and now I'm in Monterey working as a brand manager in the bike industry.
PHILOSOPHY
Whooh. I'm pretty sure this is changing constantly.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
Signed up before going on a long bike trip and was able to share some amazing experiences through the kindness and generosity of complete strangers.
Since returning, I've had the opportunity to share a bit of the couchsurfing karma and have had frequent guests stay at my cottage in Monterey.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
The midnight sun up in Alaska was about the most amazing thing I've ever seen in my life. And I suppose the northern lights in the Yukon Territory.
