Important note: if you'd like my wife and I to host you, please send a personal request (i.e. why you think we'd be a good host for you) and a reasonable number of days (not 2 weeks). We love the vision of couchsurfing, which is to make connections, not just have a free place to crash. We also have a baby, so you'd need to be OK with potential crying in the middle of the night and such things. CURRENT MISSION to have abundant life: to live fully, love freely, and laugh hard. ABOUT ME Love people. Laugh a lot. Try to make the world a better place. Don't take myself too seriously and also cry at sappy movies and weddings. My (semi-tongue-in-cheek-kidding-but-kinda-not) goal in life is to be a trophy husband, and I'm getting closer...got the husband piece in place, but still working on the trophy life! PHILOSOPHY Live a simple life of substance and try to be a blessing in the world.

Por que estou no Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING surfer, hoster, builder of community, instigator of shenanigans. I'm a lot more likely to host if you're looking to make community rather than just have a free place to crash. COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE I've surfed a bit and hosted a lot. I love being able to shelter the wandering traveler, share some laughs, build some community, and make the world a little bit smaller and friendlier. I've met some great people and I hope they feel the same! The wife is getting more experience in the CS world as well.

Uma Coisa Incrível Que Já Fiz
Walking back to the home where i was staying in Dubrovnik, Croatia, and a random woman at a house i walked by picked fresh apricots for me from her garden...she spoke no english, and all i could say in Croatian was 'thank you'. Croatia = awesome.
Ensinar, Aprender, Compartilhar
I'm interested in learning everything to be learned...i have kind of a short attention span and always love learning new stuff. sadly the result is me being mediocre at almost everything and good at very few things. but in my mediocrity, i'll teach whatever i can...even thermodynamics and energy markets, if you like. And I'm actually pretty good at thermodynamics and energy markets.
Meus Interesses
musical instruments (guitar, djembe, a few other percussion instruments, and I own a banjo and mandolin but have very limited skills at each), playing outside (mountain biking, hiking, climbing, skiing/snowboarding), science, investing in people and community, facial hair, generally being kind of a nerd, and shenanigans.
