About Me

I teach, guide (outdoor stuff), and work with youth. I love long conversations. I like to think I like learning.

Lately, I've been concerned about the topic of modern slavery. I'd like to find ways I can join others in actively combating it.

I'm a COOKsurfer!!! Whether I'm a guest or a host, I'd love to cook you a meal.

MISSION STATEMENT

To love, work, laugh, play, coach, travel, live simply, and understand why I'm here on this Earth.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love sharing culture and relationship.

It's a great way to make new friends and see into different cultures a bit more than a tourist can.

Interests

Learning, cooking, biking, outdoor activities, skiing, life, God, good questions, mountains, rivers, a solitary forest and a peaceful creek. That's where it's at.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I once had the privilege to coach a high school soccer team and lead them through an amazing transformation from one season to the next, going from no wins to making it into the playoffs. But that's only the external result of the transformation; the true achievement was not in the outward success but rather in the personal growth of each player.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach: soccer, Spanish or English, how to cook certain foods (Peruvian, Mexican, Spanish, Japanese and US American), how to ride a unicycle or walk on stilts, and how to juggle poorly.

If you like to cook, let´s swap recipes!

What I Can Share with Hosts
