CURRENT MISSION

To travel the world while working and living.

ABOUT ME

Staying active gets my goat, particularly if it involves an opportunity to goof around (examples include, but are not limited to, climbing and gymnastics).

I have a soft spot for programming and boardgames.

I'm now living in Berlin and it's fantastic ;)

PHILOSOPHY

Don't wait to retire to do the things you want. You are what you do.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Surfing and hosting.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

My first *real* couchsurfing experiences have come in Leipzig. It's been overwhelmingly positive. I've gotten to know great people to climb and play boardgames with. It's also made the city appear magical and charming.

Interests

Partner acrobatics, rock climbing, boardgames, speaking German, new cuisine, scooters, sailing, grappling.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Became a gymnastics coach with no prior experience after dropping out of a Master's degree. It taught me about gymnastics, poverty, child-rearing, adding value to the world, and professional horseplay.

Teach, Learn, Share

I have a fair amount of knowledge regarding climbing. partner acrobatics (everyone can do something!), and gymnastics. I'm a professional programmer, so presumably I can show some people a thing or two.

Aruba, Chile, Colombia, Germany, Honduras, Nicaragua, Peru, Uruguay

Countries I’ve Lived In

Canada, Ecuador, Germany
