Hello, I'm Seth. I'm an avid traveler from a small rural village in the mountains of Maine. I've been hopping around the globe ever since graduating from college, doing everything from international school teaching, driving aerial tram cars, building pools, guiding hikes, and just having adventures. I'm an aspiring photographer, who also loves hiking, skiing, basketball, reading the classics, listening to music, and experiencing new cultures.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

1. I like experiencing any place through a locals perspective
2. It's always good to get advice from someone who actually lives in the area
3. Meeting new people

I'm new to coach surfing but have heard many good things over the years. I'm usually using hostels abroad or pitching my own tent while I travel, but would really like to get some experience and potentially start offering my couch while living abroad.
