I'm somewhat of an extrovert. You could say that I am pretty much a 21 year old in a 29 year old body; but with a little more self control than I had back a few years ago. Currently I'm working on my Ph'D in Biological and Agricultural Engineering; which sounds all fancy but it's really just a broad category of applied engineering topics. I personally specialize in alternative energies, but have interest in many differing topics as you can see in the My Interest section. Aside from my professional life, I have many hobby projects/interests; including brewing beer, motorcycle/scooter/automotive repair and riding. urban farming, etc... I have lived in a few places around the US mostly, including: Sacramento, Tacoma, Denver, Delta, San Diego, and now Davis. I very much enjoy meeting new and interesting people who 'have their shit together.' I mean to say, being very extroverted, I've met a lot of people in my 29 years on this earth, but I've somewhat gotten over meeting people with addictions, or people who always have money issues while simultaneously always are buying frivolous, people who's entire life revolves around facebook and TV shows, etc... you get it right? you see what i did there; showing you that i'm a very honest person who's not afraid to offend people if it comes down to what I feel is right....
I don't really know what else to say about myself.

Что привело меня на Couchsurfing

When I lived in Denver a while back, my roommate and I would host couchsurfers from time to time. I always though it was a pretty cool gig and always met interesting and real people. I'm going to Europe in a month for work / play and figure it might be fun to become one of those interesting and real people. I can easily get a hotel and actually have work pay for it for most of the time I'm in Europe, but I just don't think that would be as meaningful of an experience

Учу, учусь, делюсь опытом и информацией

I'm not really sure what to put here; but my friends will tell you that I can talk your ear off about a few topics if you're actually interested. If not, its all good, lets just get a beer and go paint the town.

Чем я могу поделиться с хостами

I'm kinda handy and can probably fix a few things around the house or maybe on a vehicle. If your scooter /motorcycle isn't running well, I might have some luck playing with it (by 'playing' i mean working on it).
