About Me

CURRENT MISSION

An erratic yet responsible way of travelling through life.

ABOUT ME

45 years old, love adventure, outdoors, kiteboarding and the road less travelled. I like having fun. I'm always thinking of a way to get off the clock and in to life.

PHILOSOPHY

It has changed over the years, but simply now it's just finding things that make me happy all the time, not sometimes, not often, but all the time. - I love the search, it keeps me smiling.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

In the past I have hosted surfers in Dutch Harbor and Anchorage. I travel year round chasing wind to satisfy my Kiteboarding and Snowkiting addiction. I am able to host in a crunch when I'm not at work.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've mostly hosted surfers. My trek across the Alps led to my first surfing request in Austria. Great experience.

Interests

Kitboarding, Snowkiting, Diving, Fishing, Camping, Skiing, Skiing, Playing Music, Comedy, Live Sports, Live Music. Adventure Movies, Travelling, Good Bourbon and anything else that keeps me smiling.
