Im a student of life, looking for wisdom and experience in strange places from new perspectives.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

It's an excellent way to meet travelers, where ever you find yourself. Right now, I'm doing the van thing, so I'm not looking for accommodations, just meet ups!

Interests

I'm a well seasoned camper, a diver, a hiker, and a motorcycle rider. I dig spending evenings in quiet lonely places with my telescope, and walking through the woods practicing my bird calls. I love games, of all kinds, but have a particular fondness for chess and cards. Concerts, and adventures usually fill my weekends right now! Although I'm always down to grab a beer, and swap stories.

Music, Movies, and Books

Old country, Like Johnny Cash, Hank Williams really vibes with my soul. But for easy listening I'm a big classic rock fan. Pink Floyd, led, the doors. To really rock out you'll see me at concerts like deftones, chevelle, Metallica, pantera, and man o war.
If I'm hanging at home, or trying to be sophisticated you'll hear some Sinatra, chopan, ray, or Beethoven.

Anything Clint Eastwood.

Stephen kings always going to have a soft spot in my heart. But I've read through most large fantasy series. Way more Louis L'amour book than I would like to admit. And a few mysteries. Any one pumped about the dark tower finally coming out on the big screen???

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Had a chance to teach some chess classes for elementary students! Super rewarding experience.

Teach, Learn, Share

Learning has become my lifestyle, and the reason for traveling. Every place I go, i strive to educate myself in something useful. Like right now! I'm in dallas learning how to remodel houses.
I am also a certified PADI open water instructor, cpr, first and secondary response instructor.
If are paths cross, I'll always be more than happy to show you something that I know, and may ask you to return the favor. Teaching and learning are two dominating passions of mine :)

What I Can Share with Hosts

I love to cook! And find cleaning to be very therapeutic. But most useful might be my handy man skills, if I'm staying at your place, and you need something fixed, I got you ;)
