About Me

It's been a long time since I've had a guest room, and even longer since I've been truly traveling myself. Ready to open things back up.

Just a family of four, working in healthcare research, working from home, raising a couple of boys, and making some time for fun and travel as time allows. Would love to have some of the traveling world come to us, and share our space.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Just getting started...

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

My first experience was in Bali, where I had an excellent time. Since then, I tend to travel in larger groups that preclude staying on couches. That said, I'm eager to start again. The opportunity to meet real people in new places has always been a positive experience.

Interests

Anything on two wheels is always a good time. Anything that floats is even better!

  • traveling
  • hiking
  • sailing
  • calligraphy
  • science
  • biking
  • bjj

Music, Movies, and Books

Mostly classics, things you like to read over, with something redeeming. Guilty pleasures include The Alchemist, Pulp Fiction and Flogging Molly.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Sunrise in Bagan, Burma. Fog blanketed fields of temples resolving into green fields speckled with thousands of terra cotta temples.

Unreal.

Teach, Learn, Share

Bicycle repair, science math and chemistry, penmanship, and if your feeling spicy, learn how to hone an old-style barber's razor.

Coffee, tea, meals
