I've traveled too little but now that I’m in Saudi Arabia for work, I’m using Riyadh as base to explore the world in this hemisphere.

I am athletic (former boxer but too kind - could never throw the first punch! :)), play squash, and do weight training.

I don't smoke (unless we want to have a cigar), drink (though you can influence me), curse at people (not even you can influence me, but traffic or inanimate objects are fair game :))

Very easy going and not bothered by much. What?! Take off my shoes before entering? Sure, no problem. (You see?) 🤣

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

Having lived in North America for most of my life except for short sojourns abroad, I feel the need to break out - the world is a big place - and experience new perspectives and make friendships and meaningful memories that add color to the tapestry of our lives (a little poetic but travel experiences I remember most vividly go beyond places to personal engagements that grounded the experience).
