Hi fellow travelers! I teach technology and computer programming. I am doing a genealogy trip to Germany this year. Then off to a music festival in France. Then to visit friends in Italy.

During the summer break, I will be traveling again.

Living life to its fullest. Taking the bull by the horns and doing it!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I have hosted and have been hosted by couchsurfers. I've been busy with life lately, but, now I am back, so if you want to meet up I think I am pretty funny and love meeting people!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I hosted people in the past, had some great experiences minus one not-so-nice host in Amsterdam when I was in the Netherlands for an interview, so I found a good one outside of the town where I interviewed. Only one bad experience with the lady trying to make me sleep on an attic hard floor in Amsterdam the night before my interview. I still got that job, but, I had to take a train that night to the town and booked a hotel on the limited funds I had at the time where the company was because the Amsterdam host was that mean.

Been to a few countries now and met some great people with couchsurfing and hosted a cool guy when I lived In Denver. I met some great people on CS traveling in Italy in 2012.

When I did CS in 2012 while traveling and living in Vicenza, the host in Salerno hooked me up with bed and breakfast for myself in the Amalfi Coast, that was amazing since I was traveling for about two weeks during my stay for 3 months in Italy staying at hostels with the travel funk.

Couchsurfed in Malta for 20 days (November 2015)
The second Holland host who is listed in my references was amazing when I was visiting December 2015, he's near Utrecht and I would recommend him. Amsterdam was too crazy for me, I loved Utrecht.

Teach, Learn, Share

I am really enjoying meeting new people, new friends, having a global network of people to learn from!

What I Can Share with Hosts

I also am a great cook, I can help you with your English if you are not a native English speaker and want a free tutor, I clean up after myself, I am very respectful of your space, and I can tech your computer if you need to (unless it's in a different language i.e. your router - won't touch it with a 10 ft pole because I won't want to be responsible for messing it up).
