Salutations. There are some who call me... Tim - I am from a small town in northern Minnesota, USA. Since July 2016, I have been traveling and living around the world with my wife, Amee.

I like laughing and having a good time with new people from all different places. I'm generally a quiet person, but if you talk to me I will always talk back.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love that Couchsurfing gives people a natural opportunity to exchange stories, ideas, culture, and perspectives.
