About Me

I just spent a year and a half traveling in Asia and working as a scuba dive-guide. Now I'm relocating to San Diego. I like meeting new people with a perspective different than mine, trying new things and being out in nature.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Looking to get my footing in San Diego.

Interests

Scuba, freediving, backpacking, rugby, martial arts, traveling... I'm game for whatever.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Recently went diving with Thresher Sharks in Malapascua, the Philippines.

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm a professional PADI Divemaster with 300+ dives, qualified to guide anywhere underwater, conduct Discover Scuba Diving courses, and refresher courses. I'm also a certified equipment specialist. My PADI number is 348036.
I'm a novice martial artist and freediver, always looking for people to train with and learn from.
I always enjoy a good rugby game.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I'm always down to scuba dive and don't mind guiding for free (not including tanks and transportation.... and beer).
