My wife and I are avid travelers. I was in the military for a few years and got the chance to see the world. My wife, Maddie, went overseas a few times for school and vacation. I've been a huge fan of Hostels for years, but a co-worker suggested I try couch surfing. While I was at first a little unsure, I think it's a great way to find a more personal connection with people. I look forward to our first couch surfing experience, and many more.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

We love to travel, and love to meet people while doing so. Originally, that is why I picked hostels over hotels. Now I see that Couch Surfing is the next level in finding a personal connection (actually meeting and getting to know people) when traveling.

Interests

Beyond traveling, my wife and I LOVE the cinema, music, opera, literature, art, sight seeing, spending time in nature, hiking, and going out on the town.

Music, Movies, and Books

We have a vast taste in all of these, but together we both love: Ludovico Einaudi, Meet Joe Black, and the Hunger Games. I personally grew up as a musician, learning to sing and play the piano and trumpet through grade school. I currently serve as lead singer with a band at church, and have been with them for almost 3 years.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I got married to a wonderful woman named Madeline Paige.

Teach, Learn, Share

We love to learn new things when traveling. We don't have much to teach, but love to swap stories.
