Overview
About Me
I'm a newlywed and my wife is also on Couchsurfing. I currently work in marketing, specifically with sports groups around the world. I enjoy soccer (football), history, making music with other people and cooking.
I believe in the free and uninhibited travel of people, ideas, and goods across all borders.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
The best way to see a city is with someone who loves it.

Music, Movies, and Books
The best type of music is live music.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I was present in New Orleans for the first Mardi Gras after Hurricane Katrina and it was the greatest party to which I have ever been.
I also spent some time in Belfast, Northern Ireland practicing peacemaking and reconciliation and that period was full of amazing experiences but they deserve more than a few words on a profile.
Teach, Learn, Share
Both my wife and I are interested in history and would love to show people around Birmingham and Central and North Alabama.
What I Can Share with Hosts
I can cook for you, offer you a couch, a bed, a warm shower, and I am happy to show you all over Birmingham.
