Graduate of Engineering, Entrepreneur, and world traveler. A California native who has moved to Indonesia with my family.

My interests are rated as follows:
1: Nature & animals
2: Culture & people
3: Local cuisine & wine
4: Maybe some architectural sightseeing, depends on what it is. I've seen so many they start to get boring after awhile.

I have to Tell you something very important about me:

I am not into the normal, boring tourist, party stuff. For me culture is about the people - how they are, how they live (their everyday life), to share some stories, experiences and memories with them.

My travel motto:
I collect MOMENTS instead of monuments 😉

So let's do stuff like: cooking together, learn to dance, go for a walk through a local market or (motor)ride through the country side, some kind of sport, martial arts or just relax somewhere. Maybe you also have a nice hobby (meditate, yoga, massage, climbing, downhill biking, surfing, diving, action & extreme sports...) that you want to share/experience with me...

P.S. I also enjoy couchsurfing without CS platform. Sometimes I just go to a village and ask the locals, buy some food and coffee for the house and they always welcome you into their home.
