Hey! My name is Hoss (that is my real name lol). I work in diversity and Inclusion for a corporation here in Atlanta.

I love to travel, try new foods, workout, make new friends, try different bourbon, and talk anything cultural or philosophical. I’m a bit of a nerd— when it comes to super smash bros, Star Wars, Game of Thrones, or Minecraft, I can play and talk for hours.

I’m extremely adaptive to most situations and cultures and pick things up really quickly. I’m also really experimental and love trying new things.

I am quite extroverted and love having conversations of substance. I also talk A LOT.

All are welcome in my home.

Before you Request:
Please note that I don’t often accept requests from those simply looking for a one night place to stay and then leave the following morning. I like Couchsurfing for the connection, cultural exchange, making new friends, and sharing of stories. Also, I will decline copy and pasted requests, or requests that lack any personal touch.

Please Be LGBTQ 🏳️‍🌈 friendly

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love connecting with people—especially when we’re sharing our cultures, beliefs, hobbies, etc.

I am quite a talker, and never stop. So, be prepared for plenty of conversation.
