CURRENT MISSION

To travel the world and meet cool new people abroad and here in San Diego, CA

ABOUT ME

My girlfriend and I live with our wonderful 8 year old dog, Byron. We live very close to the beach in San Diego! I own my own hard cider brewery! I make the cider and tend the bar as well. It’s going great so far! If you stay with us, expect lots of cider!!! I love to cook. I'm a vegetarian so that is pretty much all I cook. You are more than welcome to eat meat when you stay here (I do not try to impose my ways on people) as long as you clean up after yourselves. I am MORE than willing to help you cook some amazing vegetarian food if you would like to try something new though!

I have played in punk bands for the last 15 to 20 years and have had an amazing time playing shows and traveling! For the past 11 years I have played rugby. It was hard to get into since it isn't very big in the U.S. but it is the best sport ever! I enjoy being outside and keeping as busy as possible with rugby, hiking, playing music, surfing and ice hockey.

PHILOSOPHY

I like to have fun with life but have responsibilities when the time comes.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I am looking to both host and couch surf. I just finished traveling Europe and had an amazing experience with everyone I met from CS. I am now looking to host whoever needs it!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I don’t travel as much anymore since I opened my cidery, but I try to escape every once in a while. I have met many amazing people doing this! Couch surfing is the way to go to meet nice local people and REALLY experience the places you're at.

Interests

I am a rugby and ice hockey player who is able to make alcohol for a job! I can't believe I get paid for doing that! I also really enjoy cooking, baking, riding bikes and going to the beach (which is only a mile away).

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

The castles of Austria are amazing. There is nothing like that anywhere in the U.S. The history of Europe is amazing.
