Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Meeting new people from different cultures is fun and exciting. I enjoy showing travelers why Austin is so great and in the process learning something new from them.

Interests

I enjoy live music, listening to records while cooking dinner, any card game, strength training, waking up early to watch the Premier League, visiting friends who live in other states and (thanks to Couchsurfing) across the globe!

Outdoor activities: biking, hiking, swimming, tennis.

I'm currently learning Spanish so if you are fluent or also learning would love to practice.

I go through phases where I discover a new hobby and then I'm obsessed with it. Right now that is trading and everything financial markets. I trade options/futures. It keeps me mentally stimulated.
