Forever curious. Travel is a great love of mine.
Not one for small talk. Lover of deep and vast conversations. Had a STEM career for many years and I love it. Have two crazy fun children.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Meet interesting folks.
Planning on a long world trip in 2021 and Couchsurfing sounds like a great option to meet locals and make the trip more affordable. To be fully on board with this then of course I should open my home and become part of this community.
It would be wonderful to host people from the following countries and perhaps then visit those people in the future: Ecuador, Indonesia(Bali), New Zealand, Australia, Japan, China (north/Beijing), Russia, Romania, Spain (Barcelona). Other nationalities welcome of course.

I have to pick one...I'll make it adventure related!

As a teenager I was a river rafting guide.

Teach, Learn, Share
