Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
Three day weekend, every weekend. Adventure and explore.
ABOUT
I love competing, running, swimming, traveling, snowboarding, and weightlifting.
I really like spontaneous road trips and hoing off the beaten path.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I host and surf, which hopefully creates good experiences for my hosts and surfers. That way they will have at least one good experience- and one more reason to let someone else surf their couch, or surf someone else's couch. :)
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
Usually more hosting than surfing. Have surfed in New Zealand, Australia, Germany, Romania and Greece.

Teach, Learn, Share
I can share personal philosophies, some languages, great stories and jokes, and of course teach you how to play the best sport in the world- Rugby.
I would love to learn a language from anyone, hear your great stories or life-philosophies.
