ABOUT ME

I am a transplant to the bay area from Southern California. I moved to San Jose for college and, with the exception of about 7 months, have lived here since. I own a small construction company and enjoy spending most of my time with close friends.

PHILOSOPHY

Try your best to take responsibility for who you are, what you do, and how you affect those around you. Always try to improve and better understand relationships with those dear to you.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I have a couch that is available most nights and participate in a few of the San Jose CS group activities, mainly drinks at Trials.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

While I have yet to surf and at this time have only hosted two people I plan to host as much as possible and someday travel again and surf then.

Interests

I enjoy spending time with my friends, cooking, reading, music, learning new things and I try my best not to be lazy and challenge myself as much as possible, that's where the friends help. I run marathons as well, but don't train as much as I should.

Music, Movies, and Books

Movies: From slapstick to tear jerking dramas I like them all. Music: Basically anything but that punk rock that just sounds like someone screaming over a bunch of noise ... and jazz that follows those same lines without the screaming. Books: Mostly non-fiction, with a historical, or scientific bend to them.

Teach, Learn, Share

I think anything I might teach would be by accident. However learning and sharing I am all for. I enjoy learning as much as I can about other people and places to keep me aware of the world. So if you stay with me be prepared for some possibly "stupid" questions. As for sharing, I feel it is a lost art in this country that we should all spend time looking for. Wanna help?
