That last few years have taught me that Couchsurfing is very different than its 2010 heyday. The transition to a for-profit business, the rise of Airbnb, and the pandemic have left the platform in a sad state. These days, I typically sort out my own accommodation while traveling, but always down to meet likeminded folks and ride bikes to vegan eateries.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Scared myself into my 30's atop Preikestolen.

Teach, Learn, Share

In 2017, I spent a lot of time by myself. I stepped foot in the Arctic Ocean, I rode bikes around Key West, saw whales/puffins/icebergs in Newfoundland, and even crossed the entirety of Labrador before it was fully paved. The previous five years were mostly spent working overseas. In 2018, I got into tech and have been working remotely since 2020.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Ridiculous stories from the gulf.
