I see my life as an adventure, and I enjoy sharing every moment with my amazing wife, Krysta. I love to travel and discover new sights, sounds, and flavors everywhere I go! You could definitely call me a 'foodie' and in the past 3 years, wine & beer appreciation has become a pretty serious hobby of mine. I'm a singer/songwriter and musician and I've had varied education and work experience. Wherever I go, and whatever I'm doing, I try to honor God by being the person He created me to be.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Couch surfing is a fantastic way to see more of the world on a shoestring budget, while getting to know some really awesome people along the way. My wife and I were very grateful for our hosts in Europe and hope to be able to host Couchsurfers in our home soon!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Recently, my wife and I decided, for various reasons, that we wanted to try adopting a whole food plant-based diet. So, we stuck to it strictly for 40 days. The transformation we experienced in our bodies was amazing! We feel so good about this healthy change, it’s our new way of life.

Teach, Learn, Share

I play guitar and bass, sing, and write songs. If you're a musician, we can jam together! Or, if you just enjoy listening, perhaps I can entertain with a few songs.

I also have some experience teaching English as a second language, so if you're interested in practicing conversation in English, perhaps I can be of assistance! I love to learn other languages too, so please feel free to teach me your language and the local lingo.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I really enjoy sharing a good meal with good company! And I'm always happy to participate in the kitchen - learning new recipes and/or cooking some of my favorites.

Perhaps we can also share some great travel stories, or have deep and meaningful conversations about life, love, and the meaning of it all!
