CURRENT MISSION

To create a positive Baltimore experience for travelers, while writing, directed short films, and continuing to progress my red beard.

ABOUT ME

I was born roughly 28 years ago on a cold and blustery January eve. My mother was preparing beef vegetable stroganoff and watching Beetlejuice when I decided this world was for me. I jumped out and immediately demanded to travel west. My genetics consist of 50% wanderlust, 47% hospitality, and 3% ginger.

PHILOSOPHY

It's easy.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I am really really really very good at not sending you to touristy spots in Baltimore. You want awesome pizza and cold beer? I've got that. You want live music that isn't Nickleback? I've got that, too.

Bring with you stories of your travels and trade them with me for our couch.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

A few years ago, I took part in a month long cross-country trek with my best friend and used CS for the first time. All of the people we met along the way were great and I knew immediately that I wanted to give back and participate in hosting travelers.
