CURRENT MISSION exploring this amazing world ABOUT ME I'm quiet yet opinionated, silly yet serious, bookish yet adventurous. I'm curious about the world and always wanting to learn new things. I share my life and my travels with my wife, Chris. We traveled around Europe for most of 2008 and spent the first third of 2009 exploring Central America. After a few years back in DC enjoying our friends and working to replenish our funds, we are now back on the road--indefinitely. PHILOSOPHY Never stop learning!

Why I'm on Couchsurfing
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE We've had numerous experiences as guests with hosts around Europe. Also we've been both hosts and travelers through two similar organizations---Servas and Women Welcome Women. It's been great! We love meeting locals; you get a much more "real" travel experience this way.
