I'm a self-described world-traveler. Through the kindness of our Couchsurfing tribe, I have visited more than 100 countries. My favorite part of Couchsurfing is to give back to the community and offer my house, my time, and my friendship to bring great people together.

I'm active and inquisitive by nature, so weekends and evenings are spent running around Town Lake, going swimming in Barton Springs, heading out to stand up paddle board on the river, go rock climbing in Barton Greenbelt.

I also like to read and I like to stay up-to-date on current events both domestic and foreign affairs.

I ask that if you are requesting to stay with me you have a few references (both for hosting our CS friends and staying with CS hosts). I have been very fortunate to stay with some great people all over the world, but I give a lot back to the CouchSurfing community as well. If you are really part of our tribe, you give more than you take, which is why I love CouchSurfing!
