Hi and thanks for visiting my profile!

I'm currently traveling in Asia and trying to build my business(es) as a coach/guide, and writing software and other tech things.

My wife and I are both vegan (she's got a separate profile) and would love to prepare and share plant-based meals.

My passion is communicating with people in their native tongues and learning cultures. And drinking tea.

I'm working on building this out, but let me know if you have any questions or just want to meet up, whether I'm a potential host, a traveler in your area, or just some random CouchSurfer whose profile you happen to be browsing.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love the exchange of cultures via hosting, meetings and get-togethers. I think if more people shared this way, we'd understand each other more, be less afraid of things we don't understand, and the world would be a better place.

CS is just such a great idea, it seems like this is how things should be.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've been to several countries. Spoken to people in several languages. I love it.

Breaking free of the corporate rut has been the best thing I've done in a long time.

Parkour. Veganism.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach English, maybe Spanish and French, guitar (basics). The world of raw, living foods and how much they will change your life. Raw food prep. And some gardening. Maybe some other stuff, just ask. I have a lot of interests. (Tech: web stuff, blogging, software dev, crypto-currencies/fintech).

I would love to learn anything related to languages, Parkour, tea, sailing, photography, entrepreneurship. Any and all martial arts, particularly Krav Maga. Anti-fragility is a big theme of my life right now.

I will share tea with you.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Food, tea, friendship. I would love to prepare a meal for us if you want.
