ABOUT ME I'm a semi-retired wildlife biologist and a passionate explorer and birder. I'm also an amateur musician. I'm adventurous, down-to-earth, thoughtful, and unpretentious. When I travel I usually do volunteer work and try to get to know the locals rather than being the typical tourist.

Why I'm on Couchsurfing
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE I've had great experiences as a couchsurfer in several countries and am hoping for more! I've also enjoyed hosting and exploring with other surfers.
One Amazing Thing I've Done
Working in Antarctica was truly one of the most incredible things I will ever do; the scenery was nonstop jawdropping. I've been skydiving and hang-gliding, both of which were pretty amazing. But even a simple sunset can leave me speechless.
What I Can Share With Hosts
If you have any interest at all in birds, I'm the perfect guest! If not, well, I'll try to be anyway! I also make a mean Dutch baby (look it up).
My Interests
I enjoy just about any outdoor activities that don't involve damaging the environment. I especially like hiking, paddling, birdwatching, and general nature study. I also like eating out, dancing, and experiencing other cultures, lifestyles, and perspectives.
