ABOUT ME

Hey I'm Nick! I grew up in the beautiful green mountains of Vermont with Australian and American parents.I am a renaissance man, and becoming a student of the world. I'm very open minded.

I don't smoke or use drugs. A craft beer here and there.
I love everything about the outdoors and being on the water. I love to fish. Snowboarding, surfing, sailing you name it, I'm there.
I think I can fix almost anything. I love building things and working with my hands. I love to learn and teach.

My degree in engineering has taken me to amazing places. When I was 21, I was designing tools for space-walking astronauts! I was so fortunate.

PHILOSOPHY
Michael Franti Music is a good start.
Optimist. Problem Solver. Comedian. Carl Sagan's "Pale Blue Dot". Documentary " 180 degrees south"

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Surfed once while travelling Australia. Great experience!
I recently watched the Documentary "Craigslist Joe" on Hulu and it blew my mind about the kindness in humanity. It reminded me of Couch Surfing. Everyone should see this film!

Une aventure extraordinaire que j'ai vécue

Enseignez, apprenez, partagez

I love to teach Brazilian Jiu Jitsu and Self Defense, especially to women. Every girl should know they are far more capable of defending themselves than they think!
I can probably troubleshoot most mechanical/ technical problems.
Would love to learn more about websites, music for guitar and get better at skiing.

Ce que j'aimerais partager avec mes hôtes

Powerful, real self defense with Brazilian Jiu Jitsu. Magic Tricks?. A scientific, problem solving mind. I can provide a little music with a guitar. I am good in the kitchen and can help you fix stuff.
