Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Happy to meet for a coffee, scuba dive, scooter ride and/or boat ride in Maui and while traveling anywhere! I was a host in 2012 and just out here to meet new friends when ever and where ever.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I met lots of surfers in my travels and have hosted over 15 surfers ! I I have made deposits in my travel future, by learning first-hand how to surf and host. This is fun, because I really enjoy meeting like-minded people and finding great travel connections in the comfort of my or my host's living room.

Intereses

Travel, photography, different cultures, warm water, scuba, camping, SUP, technology, real estate, making money to fund life not "stuff", Burning Man.

Algo increíble que he hecho

Lived in Bali off and on for 3 years - I love the Balinese culture! Been to NZ, Bali, Sulawesi, Raja Ampat, Tahiti, Bora Bora, Cuba and South Africa recently and have loved spending time with local children and volunteering with animal rescue centers. I also travel back to Maryland/DC/Nova to visit friends and family about once a year too (that doesn't count)! I have been to Burning Man 6 times and it’s just inspiring ... looking forward to meeting likeminded travelers and sharing experiences.

Enseña, aprende, comparte

Scuba Diving - I am a recreational Dive Instructor and can teach or just lead fun dives. SUP, snorkel, walk/hike - I love to share time doing these activities and have enough experience to teach or simply enjoy time doing together.

Qué puedo ofrecer a los anfitriones
