I was born in Colorado in the US and I've traveled and moved around the world a lot. Now I have a house in the Northernmost part of Sweden and own a construction company but am living in Stockholm to study civil engineering. I travel a lot for work to learn about ecological building.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love meeting new people and learning about other cultures. I prefer meeting locals and exploring less seen areas to big tourist attractions.

Music, Movies, and Books

I really love Cumbia Sonidera music from Mexico City. I listen to everything: rock, metal, country, pop, electronic, world music. I adore horror movies, especially anything by Guillermo del Toro. It's difficult for me to find books I like, but I read a lot of instructional books on languages and animals, and I like Harry Potter and Lord of the Rings.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

My dad (a NASA safety engineer) taught me to fly a single engine airplane when I was a teenager. We have an experimental KR2 in the garage that he built when he was 18 years old.

Teach, Learn, Share

Language exchange and general life/travel experience I suppose. I play some instruments and love trying new things.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I'm a hard worker and eager to help out. I can be quiet and study, but I'm also very social and love meeting new people and dancing/going out occasionally.
