CURRENT MISSION

Love to travel and meet new people. Really enjoy trying new things and foods of the area we are visiting.
Heading to Japan next spring with the family. Hopefully I will be able to find some couchsurfers that can take us in!!

ABOUT ME

I've lived in Minnesota my whole life. I enjoy getting out and doing new things. Like walking around the community, biking, and motorcycling. I love going to restaurants and trying new foods. Enjoy sporting events live and on TV.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Meet new people and share stories. It always helps to get friendly advice on what to be sure to see when I am traveling to a new city.

Surfed in:
Kansas City, MO
St. Louis, MO
Toronto, ON
Montreal, QC
Roanoke, VA
Norfolk, VA

Still looking to host my first surfer.

Interests

Road cycling 50+ mile rides. Swimming in lakes and the ocean, some lap swimming for training purposes. Triathlons - mostly the Olympic distance but I did complete an Ironman in 2013. Hiking in increments of 2-3 hours. Snorkeling. Would like to get more into rock climbing at higher heights and free climbing.

Love to watch movies. Seven Pounds, Shawshank Redemption, Pursuit of Happyness, 40 year old virgin, Anchorman, Hangover. Most of the time I prefer comedies. Country and Pop music along with Classic Rock.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Just one??

I completed an Ironman triathlon.
Crashed a wedding and made a toast. It was part of a group bucket list that I have with 3 friends.
Snuck in and walked in the St. Patrick's Day parade in Chicago.
Recently participated in the Red Bull Flugtag. I didn't "fly" that far, but we had a great time building our machine and participating.

Teach, Learn, Share

Easy going and respectful. Love to listen and share stories about travels.

I'm a very clean and tidy person. I was told by one host that she barely knew I was there.
