Me
I love meeting new people and exploring new places. I am a socially conscious and conscientious white male traveler. I am a fun-loving and energetic teacher and student both in and out of the classroom. I love adventures and am an expert budget traveler. I have a ton of positive energy, blue eyes, and love sharing. also love yoga in my life.

Ive been building and renovating homes along the Mendocino coast of California for the past few years and am very handy and happy to help.

I am already excited about how meeting one another could positively impact both of our lives.

What I've Done
I've been a tour guide, High school teacher, and bartender in San Francisco and know many of the secrets of the city. I love showing them to people and want the same experience when I visit new places. I used to lead children into the woods as a wilderness guide and teach poetry to inmates in a federal prison.
Recently I’ve been a builder along the coast of Northern California.

What I'm Doing
planning to cautiously and respectfully learn much about the world and the people in it. When invited I will happily engage in it all. I have a lot of joy to share with the world and love spreading it. I enjoy exchanges between people and would happily help you with anything/everything or cook/clean in your home. I am grateful.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

I love meeting new people and finding fun, positive, experiences with people who know their own countries well. I know ALL of the secrets of San Francisco and make it a point to share with those who travel here. I look for the same whenever I am traveling. I love to give to others in appreciation for them sharing their home. I will cook, clean, do dishes, lend a hand in big projects, or mostly anything else I can do to help. I appreciate your openness and generosity and want to return the favor in whatever ways I can.

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

I positively influence kids every day. I saved a child from drowning in the Red Sea. I hiked the Inca Trail with a friend as a guide.

教，学，和分享

I learn something new every day from my students and those around me. I communicate with people in a way that transcends language because I listen and have patience for myself and others. I am humble and constantly aware that there is more to learn. I will take the time to teach anyone anything especially when it concerns communication and listening to oneself. I share everything!
