CURRENT MISSION

Mission: always make new friends

ABOUT ME

I probably look like your stereo typical white guy from New England (born in Connecticut) but I like to think I am well traveled and open minded.
I am a pretty laid back person that likes to entertain and host friends.
At the moment, I love my job and I love this city.

PHILOSOPHY

Don’t walk in front of me, I may not follow.
Don’t walk behind me, I may not lead.
Just walk beside me and be my friend.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I used CS a while back in college, now that I am more established in a new area I am open to hosting anyone around my age or young at heart that is interested in checking out what Portland has to offer.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have hosted a few people before, twice in SF and now five in PDX. And many Airbnb people but I find couchsurfers to be more fun guests.

Interests

I am pretty much into everything and love the idea of exploring a new hobby or having a new adventure.

• surfing
• sailing
• skiing
• lacrosse

Music, Movies, and Books

Really everything and anything... just have to be in the right mood.
I mostly watch comedies, bbc shows, and the occasional drama.
My musical tastes are all over but you will most likely hear house/techno/hiphop since I like to put together a daily playlist for practice.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I have a been to every state in the US, lived in Beijing/Hong Kong, and traveled all over Asia, Canada, Europe.

Teach, Learn, Share

I will not be surfing anytime soon.
