I love learning about the world and experiencing it intense, authentic ways. You can typically find me wandering the forests, lifting in the gym, head banging to hardcore music, or reading a history book. I try to travels in ways that serve my passion for knowledge, novelty, fitness, and adventure. I’m a currently between jobs and nomading around Europe and Asia.

我为什么使用Couchsurfing
Couchsurfing has been a life changing way for me to connect with new friends on the road. I owe so much to this platform.

教学、学习、分享
I'd love to learn more about my hosts, and connect on a personal level. I also enjoy talking about psychology, geography, philosophy, history, and whatever else comes up. Working out is a huge component of my life, so I can share tips about lifting/fitness. Since I teach history, I appreciate anything you can teach me about the history of where you’re :)
我能与房东分享的
I would love to share information about myself and learn more about my host. I'm very open to new experiences. I know a little bit about a lot of things, and I’d be happy to teach my host something about history or the United States!
