About Me

CURRENT MISSION

My mission is to meet new people from across the world. I have a desire to interact with new people from different cultures and to learn how to live and adapt to everybody from everywhere!

ABOUT ME

I am an engineer in Houston, TX and love meeting new people. My wife and I love the couch surfing idea and try to host whenever we are available. My relationship with God is a big part of who I am and my desire to meet new people is a big reason why I love traveling.

PHILOSOPHY

Take every opportunity that you are given to enjoy life to the fullest.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I want to encourage a break down amongst cultural boundaries. I want to be a part of a world coming together and understanding differences and respecting people for who they are. I wish I spoke more languages.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've couchsurfed in Paris, Prague, and Ireland. It was by far the best part of all of my trips. I was able to eat local food and have my fellow couchsurfing buddies show me places and explain history that I wouldn't have experienced otherwise. It was a joy to be hosted and I feel that its the best way to travel.
