Hey! I'm Stephen. I'm a quiet, friendly guy that enjoys learning just about anything.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I enjoy the connections that are made and the culture exchange that happens whenever I surf. I am still surprised that there are so many people willing to except me into there home and show me how they live.

Interests

I enjoy finding the best coffee shops in every major city I visit.

I'm interested in slacklining, rock climbing, gymnastics... anything involving movement really.

I also like to pretend I read a lot. So please tell me your favorite book.

Music, Movies, and Books

Music: jazz and R&B
Books: Hyperion, Shadow & Claw, Ender's Game.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

When I was an extreme coffee enthusiast, I built my own coffee roaster and even made it computer controlled.
It doesn't work anymore though :/

Teach, Learn, Share

COFFEE! I can brew, roast, and teach about the world's most popular drug 😄

I was quality control for a coffee shop in Chicago and I still love the craft of coffee.

I enjoy learning how other people live and organize their lifestyle. Excepting me into your home is enough for me to learn and get inspiration for when I return home.

Also I'm still trying to perfect my handstand so any tips are appreciated
