ABOUT ME

Easy going guy with a minimalist lifestyle. I live on a sailboat and don't need a lot of amenities.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I want to meet interesting people, share cultures and introduce people to life on a sailboat.

Interests

I am a sailor through and through. I live on my sailboat and am currently exploring the Turkish coast and the Greek Islands. I enjoy all types of music and photography.

• culture
• writing
• photography
• music
• sailing
• freelancing

Music, Movies, and Books

Music brings incredible strength to our lives and I find myself with very eclectic tastes. Coldplay, One Republic, Mumford & Sons, Phillip Phillips, John Legend, Gordie Sampson, The Avett Brothers, Lady Antebellum, Avril Lavigne, Elton John, REO Speedwagon, Styx and many more.

Action and Adventure movies are my favorites and of course anything with a sailing theme is preferred. Master and Commander is the absolute favorite of course.

I have been a lover of books since I was a child and truly my one regret in moving onto a boat to live 8 years ago was having to give up my book collection. Sadly, I don't get to read as much as I should.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

In April of 2015 I loaded my sailboat on a freighter bound for Istanbul, Turkey and four days later stepped off the North American continent for the first time.

Teach, Learn, Share

I am an amature photograper as well as a freelance writer so sharing some amazing sunrise and sailing photos would be an incredible pleasure.
Living on my sailboat, I can also give guests a chance to go sailing.

What I Can Share with Hosts

My writing and photography as well as my desire to learn your cuisine and culture. As a native English speaker, I am willing to help those wanting to learn English better or just to have a chance to practice it.
