I absolutely love to travel! From local road trips to international adventures. The next top five countries I would love to visit (or revisit) are Thailand and Viet Nam, Nepal, Guatemala and Peru. In 2025, I visited Turkey, Spain , Ireland, England, Switzerland, Germany, Poland, The Czech Republic and the Netherlands! Guatemala and Peru are two of my favorite countries that I have ever visited. I’m a tour manager for musicians and so I travel a lot in the states though I am most looking forward to more international travel. I love museums, art, and culture, fashion, local cuisine, and wild natural places. I value compassion, kindness, respect, honesty and clear communication, and I will always do my best to bring these things to the table when you engage with me.

The world is my playground, and the people in it are my friends! I’ve been a Pilot, a Sailor, a gardener, a student and many other things that have made my life quite an adventure. Recent adventures have been in the Pacific Northwest and a new job in Colorado Springs! I'm not much for connecting over messaging or social media; in-person interactions are where its at.

CURRENT MISSION Bring awe and wonder to the world. ABOUT ME IF YOU CAN NOT GET AHOLD OF ME ON CS.COM LOOK ME UP ON FACEBOOK AND SEND ME A MESSAGE THERE! Richard V Gilbert Enjoy the outdoors! Dis-like immature drunk people. I am not traveling to a foreign country to get wasted and dance at a club! I can do that in America if I wanted to! I really enjoy meeting new people and asking questions about their culture and getting to know their culture and city as a native with them!!! :) PHILOSOPHY "Be the change you wish to see..."

I started CS in Portland, OR since 2007 and have been exploring and learning as much as possible. I moved to Colorado Springs before covid and have been enjoying the Rocky Mountains! I still need to find water from time to time. I'd really like to visit at least as many countries as I am old. I'm a bit behind, so I need to keep going! I really love nature and hiking. The city is an important place, but I also geocache so if I can find fun little parks around town that amazing!

CURRENT MISSION On a quest to figure out why people like the taste of cilantro. ABOUT ME Gay, dog dad, artist, musician, funny extrovert. I'll try anything 3 times.

I OFTEN DO NOT GET NOTIFICATIONS WHEN PEOPLE SEND A REQUEST. PLEASE SEND ME A TEXT. I've traveled the world a bit and I'm really happy to be back in Nebraska (never thought I'd say that). I started my Couchsurfing journey many years ago when I hosted people in a Wal-Mart tent that I lived in in the middle of the forest near Rapid City, South Dakota. I really enjoy meeting new people and hearing and sharing stories and that was such a great way to do so. Then, I lived in Colorado Springs for many years. I rented out my extra bedrooms and there was always around 5 to 7 people living in the house. I was only able to host a couple Couchsurfers there. In Colorado Springs I worked for the DoD; first enlisted with the Air Force and then as a contractor for the Army. I worked with space technology (geolocating jamming and space pirates among some other stuff) and was an Electronic Warfare instructor for many years which is when I realized my love of teaching. In Nebraska I'm doing random jobs and was a substitute teacher last year (2023 to 2024). I will be teaching math full-time now. Phone: (719) 453-2118
