CURRENT MISSION

My mission is to visit every continent, make new friends, have great stories to tell and to see as much of the world as possible!

ABOUT ME

I am a really easy-going guy. I like to experience new things, meet new people, love, laugh and learn. I have been traveling the world outside of the US since 2002. I have been on 5 continents thus far and I am hoping to make it to the other 2 in due time. I am a full time student. I study astrophysics with a scholarship from NASA. When I am not involved in school, or scientific research, I am a firearms instructor. A big dichotomy, right?!? Well it makes sense because I was in the US Marine Corps and so my military experience has helped.I am a Canadian-American, so I have dual citizenship. Canadians are always welcome!

PHILOSOPHY

The Golden Rule.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I want to host people from around the world and make some new friends and have some good experiences.

Please be aware that if I am hosting you, I am not your personal tour guide. I will share some time with you and show you some sites if I have time, but I cannot take you everywhere. It has been my experience that this is sometimes the expectation of travelers - they want a host who is also a tour guide. I have a very busy life and I am willing to allow you into my home to have a place to rest your head and share some stories. Please respect that :)

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Best couch surfing was when I was in Spain. Met some wonderful people there. Also, when I was in South America, I met a wonderful couple that allowed me to stay in their home for 2 weeks while they were away!

Interests

I love to travel of course, I also like to play sports (especially Ice Hockey), be outdoors, ride bikes, drive cars, hike, climb and much more!
