I was born and raised in Washington, DC. I am an athletic, inquisitive, well-traveled, and courteous guy who is into fitness, travel, dining out, fashion, sports cars, pickup trucks, sci-fi, philosophy, and technology. I am a US Army veteran. I was an exchange student (AFS) in Japan when I was 15 years old, and I've lived in Germany for 3 years.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing
