I'm into just about any outdoors or extreme sport, and have been spending a fair bit of time participating in them recently. But when I'm not travelling with that intent, I appreciate finding rarely travelled places while gaining new perspectives and cultural insights. I am always eager for new experiences, to learn new things, and to share stories.

I'm usually on here for meet ups, I love to meet new people, locals or other travellers. Especially in places considered to be the path less travelled.

I'm not much into drinking and smoking, but not opposed in any way to going out for a night on the town.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To meet up with other explorers whether it is at home or abroad!

Interests

Largely outdoors related as of late, I'm down for any crazy adventure. While I don't read as much as I should, I regularly enjoy podcasts on topics from psychology and philosophy to history and science.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I have jumped off a bridge a time or two.

A story or two, a Mona Lisa smile, a climbing partner, and I hear that I make a decent American breakfast.
