Hello! I left my job as a project manager in December 2020 and I went on a roadtrip across the U.S. making my way from coast to coast and then back to the Midwest. Throughout the trip I loved meeting CSers in the states. Now I am preparing to head across the pond to Europe and am excited to make new friends while exploring there for the first time.

While traveling I like to read, journal, listen to albums and podcasts, hike, practice photography, visit museums, try local brews, and meet new people.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

I want to meet other people who are traveling and who can help me experience the places I am visiting. I am also looking for hosts that I can eat and explore with

音乐、电影和书籍

I used to work for a college radio station and have been a big fan of listening to albums ever since. Specifically I love indie, alt rock, singer-songwriter, folk rock, hip-hop, rap, etc. Some of my favorite artists are: Father John Misty, Kendrick Lamar, Big Thief, Tyler, The Creator, Whitney, Kanye, Mount Eerie, Bon Iver, blink-182

I am also an on-again, off-again reader of mostly classic science fiction novels. I love Phillip K. Dick and Kurt Vonnegut. I like reading books that other people consider their favorite books or books that had a significant effect on them. Those books are always interesting because you get to know more about the person who recommended it as well as the book.

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

I turned my station wagon into a camper that I could store all of my things in, cook out the back of, and sleep in. I lived out of it for about 6 months while on a 15,000 mile roundtrip around the U.S. I also finished seeing all of the lower 48 states on that trip!

我可以与沙发主分享些什么

I'm can cook, teach English, give managerial consulting advice, and help prepare for interviews. I am also pretty good with cars and given the right tools can do repairs or give automotive advice.

I'm a good listener, but will also bring random topics to a conversation if I think it will be interesting to hear what other people think.
