CURRENT MISSION

To explore the world and never use a resume to get a job.

ABOUT ME

I am a relaxed guy who loves to travel the world and explore other countries and cultures.  I love adventure, sports, spending time with family and friends, and enjoy the richness of a good conversation and enchange of thoughts.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I have hosted a couple of times, but am usually traveling or in a place where I have been the fortunate recipient of CS.  I am a huge advocate of this and try to encourage people to get involved on various levels.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have surfed in South Africa and Colombia and it is one of the most enriching cultural experiences possible. I have also hosted and assisted in hosting, which has been great.

Interests

Family, friends, soccer, swimming, giving back, hiking, camping, good conversations, exploring other cultures, reading Architectual Digest over a glass of wine, surfing, watching sunsets, reading, learning, growing.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Hitchhiked through Tibet.

Teach, Learn, Share

I just enjoy exchanging stories and experiences and hope that I can learn and teach at the same time. I can, however, show you how to sew a button on a shirt, thanks to a "how to" speech I did in high school.
