I grew up as a third culture kid and have lived in five countries, traveled to six continents and speak a couple of languages. I love to travel, have adventures, eat decadent food and meet new people to learn about their stories.

Perché sono iscritto su Couchsurfing

I really enjoy having more local experiences when I travel, and also like to bring the "travel spirit" into my home when I'm not on the road.
My CS experience includes hosting surfers back when I used to live in South Beach in Miami, surfing a few times including in Puerto Rico and Sweden, and hosting weekly CS happy hours in Miami too.
