Overview
About Me
Fun, curious, adventurous, easy-going, and respectful citizen of the world. My passport is US, but there's something from every corner of the world I would enjoy seeing and experiencing. Former software engineer transitioning to development policy.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I was a CS'er for many years, hosted other CS'ers tens of times, hosted a handful of events, and been hosted a handful of times. Then came the pandemic, travel became bit strange, and a passive-aggressive manipulative host slandered me. Nonetheless, the vast majority of experiences have been positive and so I here I am!

Witnessing the transit of Venus put a fine point on just how huge the Sun is! Another astronomical event was seeing a total solar eclipse: totally eery!
