About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To see as much of the world and meet as many people as possible!

ABOUT ME

I love to cook, eat, dance, surf, cycle and do anything else that I can outdoors.
I love travelling, meeting new people and learning, teaching and sharing everything I can.
I'm a bit of a long term nomad having lived 4 years in Japan, 2 in Colombia and now visiting the states for "who knows how long".
Couchsurfing really has changed the way I travel and how I view traveling in general. It's not just the places you visit but the people you meet and the experiences you get to share with them.

PHILOSOPHY

You'll never know unless you try!

Interests

Eating, cooking, surfing, salsa dancing, cycling, hiking, languages, history, movies...
Also, learning new things about peoples and cultures I'm unfamiliar with (from shinto ceremonies to college football games)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Every dance I've ever had!

Teach, Learn, Share

I love teaching salsa (LA style, Cali style, Cuban) and if you need to pick up a few phrases in Japanese or Spanish I'll gladly help out.
