I am an outgoing optimistic person that enjoys spending time outside in all types of adverse weather. I'm new to couch surfing but looking forward to meeting the people and the cultures around the areas that I go. I grew up in the Pacific Northwest through foster care and got myself to college where I now reside and Seattle working with youth and adults in the outdoors. I am a single tall white guy with the beard right now should be interesting while being in Thailand with the heat.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Hotels and resorts are overrated. Being able to meet the locals chat and hang out with great people is much more appealing.
