Traveler & Conversationalist. Grew up in Alaska. I was a production manager at a finance company and I taught business skills to subsistence farmers in the US Peace Corps in Panama. I'm recently graduated law school and I'm nearly divorced. Looking for adventures while mapping out my next chapter. Currently considering starting a business in marijuana production and /or legal counsel in states where recreational and/or medical use has been allowed.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To have a friend in town when I travel. I'd love to practice my Spanish, or help someone practice their English. I like walking through parks, museums, cemeteries, and boardwalks. I became addicted to coffee in the service of the American people.
