CURRENT MISSION

Live Life, Be Compassionate and Love Often

ABOUT ME

Raised in NJ, lived in NYC and San Francisco and now traveling the world.

Professionally, I was once a bartender at the airport serving drinks and ten years later became a senior executive for a financial services company in Silicon Valley. I have since retired to go explore the world for a year before figuring out how to make a deeper more meaningful impact in the world.

I work hard and travel harder.

I'm a good natured and loving individual with a passion for people and cultures.

PHILOSOPHY

Love everyone and judge no one. Mental, physical, emotional and spiritual growth.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Surfing at the moment as I am traveling.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Had my first experience in Brunei and it was great. I had another couch surfing experience in Jakarta which wasn't so great.

Interests

I love culture, food and languages. I enjoy long walks and even longer conversations. Nature is beautiful to me as well as physical structures that we've built. I love sunsets, the ocean, active outdoor sports, exploring ancient ruins, speaking with locals and learning.

I enjoy technology, social and sustainable businesses, micro-financing and healthy living.
