I can offer an excellent night or two on the town. I consider myself a foodie and find myself exploiting local hotspots to other people whom have been here 20+ years. I know everything from bar/food/entertainment scene to arts and park district areas.

I am a chameleon. I can operate well in any environment. I spent 4 years in USMC, father of 2 amazing children, run an online business, enjoy travel, live music, sporting events, craft beer, bourbon, good food, intelligent conversation, star watching (planetariums/observatories are absolutely amazing if never tried....), love people, enjoy making new friends.

I am not too much in to TV or movies. I try to go out and meet people and do things. Not to say I won't watch tv...just saying humans make good friends.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To get my travel back in the excitement phase. I've been going to the same spots, and it's like reading the same chapters in a book. Time for some new pages.

I need to knock out 7 continents and 50 states. Not much more left.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

We are all so amazing...I have a few great stories to share.

What I Can Share with Hosts

First round. Just kidding. A great time, good sense of humor, and a sense of relief from that last crazy guest. We would enjoy your town, and I would respect your space/town/friends...and you would meet an amazing guy, someone who is passionate, wants to learn about others, and may coerce you to come try out his town!!!!!
