About Me

Howdy! My name’s Joe and these days I'm living in sunny Redondo Beach, California. I graduated college in 2015 and since then have found myself on the east coast, west coast, and overseas. In that time, I’ve worked as a mountain guide, AmeriCorps NCCC Crew Leader, and National Park Service Ranger. I’m a regular runner, sunrise surfer, coffee connoisseur, habitual hiker, and one who is apt to be avid of alliterative autobiographies.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I just moved to the LA Area, and I'm looking to meet both locals and travelers in the area. I'm a pretty active person, and I would love to do some active activities with some other folks!

Teach, Learn, Share

As I mentioned, I enjoy active activities and sharing these with people. Never been slacklining, rock climbing, mountain biking, kayaking, hiking, etc.? I'm happy to teach you if you've never done these things (I've worked as a mountain biking, rock climbing, and kayaking instructor before).
I'm a bit of a nature nerd, and I try to brush up on my local ecology every time I go for a hike or a walk.
Play an instrument? I've got a guitar and love to jam.
I love learning, so if you've got a skill you enjoy sharing, I'm always open to new experiences.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I'm happy to help out around any host's place, be it cooking, cleaning, fixin' stuff, organizing, etc.
