Names Jack Im a born and raised Alaskan. Grew up under a family whitewater rafting company. Guided for many years on many rivers. Was influenced at a young age by adventurous guides to get out and see the world so thats just what I did! After school I worked up in the arctic oil fields and had an awesome schedule which granted me the time to travel. Ive been all over the world, favorite place being Colombia. I moved to Colorado for a bit and now finally tryin my hand at the HI life! I'm a pretty easy, down to earth type so hit me up if you'd like.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Well Ive always wanted to try it out having heard about it for years. Honestly, itd just be nice to meet locals at these destinations ive been or plan on going to. Learning the ins and outs, secrets, and things id otherwise maybe never see or experience would be awesome. Making worldy friends is nothing but a plus :)
