Divorced father of two. Born and raised in Portland, OR. Generally a laid-back and easy-going guy who likes to travel. I'd love to meet more people from all over and share experiences over a couple local microbrews.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

If I'm going to travel to new places, I'd rather meet people from the area and make new friends as opposed to holing myself up in a hotel.

Interests

Being the best father I can to my two boys. Hiking and indoor rock climbing. Trying to get back into crossfit and running. Local beer.

Music, Movies, and Books

Mostly 90's alternative rock, but my musical interests run the gamut. I really don't watch a lot of movies or read a whole lot. Most of what I do are documentaries/nonfiction.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Spent a year in Salzburg, Austria while a sophomore in college. Awesome experience and made some lifelong friends.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I'd love to bring you a craft brew from Oregon if you are interested. Or something small and local from here. I'm a horrible cook, so I can't make you a meal. :) I could share some basic tax knowledge; I used to work for the IRS. :)
