Hi! My name is Thomas McGrath. I'm an American who spent most of my life (12 years) in southern Japan. I like to spend my evenings playing indoor soccer or talking.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love to travel and meet new people, and am trying to do so as much as I can. I really appreciate the idea that people believe in helping others, and would like to help as much as I can. Currently I cannot host due to the fact that I live in a dorm.

Interests

I love learning, being outdoors, and experiencing new places and things.

• animals
• traveling
• guitar
• piano
• outdoor activities
• soccer
• ecology

Music, Movies, and Books

I've recently read The Things They Carried, Einsteins Dreams, and Missoula. I haven't found time to watch much TV since arriving in Montana, there's just too much outdoors!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I have hiked the Annapurna Circuit in Nepal.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can speak about the places I've visited and I love to talk about animals as I study ecology. I can help beginner guitar or piano players.
