Show you my world...and learn about yours.

I'm honestly one of the luckiest dudes alive. I've been fortunate enough to travel all around the world. I've been to 50+ countries. I did a semester abroad in Hong Kong when I was in school. I travel to Europe almost every Summer (mainly Greece) and I LOVE using my passport.

I've graduated college and started a few businesses that allow me to travel and work at the same time. I have also been extremely lucky to work part time at sporting events with ESPN. I love sports and traveling and it's an amazing way to do both.

Pourquoi je suis sur Couchsurfing

I have friends that I've met while traveling visiting me all the time. When I heard about this website, I thought it'd be a cool way to do that with people I haven't even met yet.

I'm one of those people that will probably host some foreign kids when I get older cause I believe there is so much to gain for my children from making friends from different countries.

I totally love the idea of being host while living in Venice Beach as a cool way to pay it forward to fellow travelers.

Never tried couchsurfing myself...but have used the Hangouts while abroad.

Enseignez, apprenez, partagez

I live in the heart of Venice Beach and would love to make friends with CSers that will eventually make their way to LA and I can return the favor.

I plan to live to 150 and have all kinds of biohacks and gadgets to help me get there. Always happy to share what I’ve learned over the years.
