ABOUT ME

I'm a quiet guy who loves to learn new things and spends a lot of time making up stories.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Still fairly new at this. We've got a house with plenty of room, so we might as well share some of it every once in a while and meet people.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Surfed for over a week and loved it. Also, as a storyteller, I've been invited to a number of events where I was hosted by volunteers. It's always been a good experience.
