I'm a construction worker (roofing) from the Chicago area. I've lived my adult life in a small town in Iowa. I love to travel in SE Asia. I love meeting people.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love to meet people from different cultures and backgrounds. I love to travel and get to know some locals. I really like to know about other travelers as well. I get so many ideas about where to go and what to do because I meet so many different travelers and locals. I hope to visit more of the world in the next many years.

Interests

I have finally discovered that I love to travel. I wish I would have discovered the backpacking opportunities many years ago. I love to play cards and I love to play sports.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've been to a lot of India, and I hope to explore more. I've seen St Stephen's Cathedral in Vienna.... Wow. I've also lived close enough to Chicago to see the glorious skyline of Chicago countless times. I've also seen the double skyline of New York while I walked across the Brooklyn bridge at night... Wow.
