ABOUT ME

Male, 31 years old. I'm a hard working high energy person who is spontaneous and up for anything. I love to travel, meet new people and learn new things. I love making my friends laugh, good food, a cold beer and the Green Bay Packers. I'm a pretty independent traveler as I've been roaming around for almost 3 years now, so I won't be a needy couch surfer, but I do love good company so if you're not busy I'll be happy to have a friend and guide in a new place.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I'm pretty new to the whole thing...

My first experience was meeting a woman at the airport in Aruba who saw me like a lost puppy just looking around, then she offered me a ride, and as we talked and hit it off, she offered me her spare room. I ended up staying in Aruba almost a week longer than planned, and this is how I learned about couch surfing... and I love it.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

While in South Africa I did the worlds highest bungee jump and went shark cage diving... both are terrifying for different reasons.
I performed a memorable feet on a night dive 30 meters below the sea, which I will only tell you the details about if we meet in person.
I biked from Detroit to Boston with my brother. No beer can ever taste as good as the one you drink after biking 100 miles in a day.
I also have a lot of stories from South America, and South East Asia, but we can chat about that over coffee or a beer.
