CURRENT MISSION

Traveling out of my normal boundries to experience different cultures.

ABOUT ME

Hmm... my friends will tell you that I'm intelligent (smart a**?), knowledgeable (full of useless information), witty, sarcastic ...

PHILOSOPHY

It's not the destination but the journey.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I signed up with Couchsurfing in 2012 after hearing about it from some friends who had used it. Since it's linked to Facebook I met Marianna through a mutual friend we had. She had used Couchsurfing before and now we have stayed with hosts in the UK and we have hosted in our home. This is a fantastic way to meet people who love to travel and gain insight to different places.
I am journeying alone now and spending part of my time helping my parents in Charlotte NC during a difficult time. I cannot host when I am there but I can meet to share experience and knowledge.

Interests

My passion in life is motorcycles! That's what I spend my time and resources on. I have traveled all over the southeastern US, England, Scotland and the Isle of Man on a motorcycle and want to explore other countries as well. I like to learn how things work. I'm always tinkering on something, trying to fix it, make it better.
