Respectful, conversational, Renaissance Man, and thrill-seeking is how those closest to me would describe me.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I travel a lot for work (especially to Upland/Rancho Cucamonga in California) and find this to be more fun than booking a hotel and having no one to speak to or share a beer with.

Interests

• cooking
• reading

• cleaning
• work out

Music, Movies, and Books

My musical taste is eclectic, going from Fantastic Negrito to Lamb of God to Disclosure to J. Balvin. I can’t settle on one genre so I catch them all like Pokémon.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I’ve rescued a tortoise from a ditch it had no business in and took it to a seaside sand bar in Galveston for it to find its way back out to sea.

Teach, Learn, Share

I love discussing business, politics, and especially life insurance (I know, geeky) but it’s only because these are my specialties. I also really enjoy hearing about other’s trips and talking about my own vacations abroad.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I have stories to share, as well as tools for working around the house and mechanical skills for any handiwork or electronic repair.
