I'm a pseudo retired restaurateur living a bit of a vagabond lifestyle with my beautiful wife Mee. We've been together for going on 15 years now and have two beautiful boys, Jason and Joshua. Both are from my first marriage and both are almost out of college, living in Atlanta, Georgia.

We helped start a small restaurant called Farm Burger in Decatur, Ga with two awesome partners. Farm Burger is a neighborhood burger joint serving locally sourced grassfed beef. All of our proteins and a lot of our produce is sourced from local growers in an effort to help support local agriculture and start having people asking the question, "Where does my food actually come from?"

Well the first store took off and we've since opened 5 more. After the 4th store Mee & I asked our partners if it would be OK if we took a bit of a hiatus and in October of 2013 we started traveling. We spent about a year and a half in SE Asia, studying yoga and massage and integrating into the culture. We recently returned in May. We opened our 6th store in Marin County, Ca. and then bought a 1985 Toyota Dolphin RV and drove it across the country.
Ending up in Atlanta in time for Thanksgiving with the family; it had been awhile.

We've decided to do a couple of more stores with our partners, before heading back on another couple of years abroad. Our next store is in Huntsville, AL but doesn't get rolling until the first week in January so Mee took off for Costa Rica to do a bit of a spirit quest, aka some time alone, and I've been enjoying the Florida Keys.

I've long been a fan of living as sustainably as possible and recently stayed with our son who had been hosting a couch surfer and it piqued our interest.

Pourquoi je suis sur Couchsurfing

Curiosity and the fact that my reservations at the beautiful state parks of the Keys have just about run out.

I do have a 20ft RV - tiny, not much bigger than a car and can very easily often preferably sleep in there provided you let me plug in to an outside outlet and use your bathroom. Or we can kick it in your pad. I can sometimes be a bit reclusive without my socially dynamic wife so getting to meet new people is great.

Une aventure extraordinaire que j'ai vécue

I was an Army Ranger.
A very long time ago in what seems like a different life time.

Enseignez, apprenez, partagez

The world is a truly amazing place and the more people you meet and the more you travel the greater your perspective becomes.

Ce que j'aimerais partager avec mes hôtes

My story.
Yoga, but that's a bit personal depending on the person.
Studied Thai Massage for 3 months while living I n Chiang Mai under some pretty awesome teachers. But again that can be a bit personal.
