ABOUT ME

They'd say I'm a pastor on a journey of committing more and more of myself to giving to others as I have been given.

PHILOSOPHY

How do you live your life?I am a Christian. Not the crazy weird kind. The kind that attempts to follow the radical way of Jesus.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

What kinds of experiences have you had through CouchSurfing?I am new and excited to become a part of a dynamic international community.

Interests

Everything. I am interested in most subjects to the extent I am able to learn of them. Hiking, biking, guitar, singing, piano, running, vinyl, tea+coffee, reading. Everything goes. As a pastor, a primary concern is well-being in every dimension: salvation, health/wellness, self-giving, love, compassion.
