CURRENT MISSION

Spread the stoke!

ABOUT ME

I'm interested in life. All of it... the beautiful struggle. I'm very active and love to learn new things. I like doing more with less. I'm a people person and will try anything twice.

PHILOSOPHY

You only get one go-round on this earth. Don't waste it sitting on your ass.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I'm just getting started on the Surfing scene. Looking forward to meeting some interesting travelers!

Stand-up paddle boarding, building and remodeling stuff, exploring new places and cuisine, whitewater kayaking, enjoying my awesome friends and family, Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, reading, and lots of laughter.

Music, Movies, and Books

Funky rock, Edward Abbey, Howard Zinn, good hip-hop, and long movies that tell a story.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Wow. I've been blessed to have so many amazing experiences. Other than the birth of my two kids (which will always be tied for the most amazing things ever), I once enjoyed an evening of beers in a hot tub on top of a glacier in Iceland. That was pretty sweet.

Teach, Learn, Share

I have a decent skill set I could share... marketing techniques, writing and content building, carpentry tips, Jiu-Jitsu/self defense, auto repair, surfing (non-couch) instruction, philosophical debate...

This is probably a stretch, but I want to learn how to weld and I'm developing an interest in raising my own protein.
