My name is Colin. I'm from Mlilwaukee, WI. I make my living in the world of health and fitness as a personal trainer, group class instructor, and martial arts instructor. I play capoeira. I workout a lot. I do yoga. I ride my bike and I love to go on adventures. I'm semi-well traveled and have spent a good amount of time out of the country. Now, I'd like to keep on that path and continue to broaden my horizons.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm couch serving because I love to travel and I like to do so in very authentic ways. If you want to connect with the place you're traveling to you need to connect with those who know it best. This is a great way to do that. I also like to travel on the cheap so I can travel often!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I moved to a city in Brazil where no one spoke my language to spend two months sleeping on a cot in the house of a guy that I had never met before so I could learn capoeira under one of the best masters in the world.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach people about capoeira, martial arts, personal fitness, and nutrition. I would love to learn more about music, language, and culture. I'm always down to share a good story or two.
