CURRENT MISSION

To learn, to meet, to solve the worlds problems and tell no one, eat good food and every now and then rock some karaoke

ABOUT ME

Perpetual motion machine always looking for new external stimuli. Personal favorites include biking (road, cross-country, downhill, cyclocross, etc), skiing, snowboarding, climbing, mountaineering, surfing, anything involving a lake, good conversation, reading, cooking, eating what I cooked, good beer, cheap wine that doesn´t offend the taste buds.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Couchsurfed with an Aunt and Uncle for a month when I first moved to the Seattle area. Definitely looking forward to meeting new people (ie, not family members) and not staying for a month at a stretch.
