Hi. Mike is my name, I'm a 32 yr old, laid back, professional seattlite (well, technically Burien-ite. For those far away & heading this direction, I'm very close to seatac airport ;)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm a bit of a penny pincher myself, especially when I travel. So, if I can pay it forward with my space to help someone along their journey, I whole heartedly jump at the chance.

Interests

Travel, obviously. I've visited around 70 countries; some backpacking, but mostly while working for five years on cruise ships. I love culinary arts, stimulating conversation, trying new things, challenging myself and others, and I'm big on fun.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Earned the nickname "the anti Robin Hood."
