I'm trying to excel at taking time off work and exploring new places. Last year I visited 15 new countries as well as several US cities.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To meet more local people while traveling/immerse in the culture. Hotels are generally an unnecessary evil (okay, maybe a little strong) in my opinion.

Interests

Biking-for commuting, exploring new places, or for long sanctioned rides.

Music, Movies, and Books

90's alternative and pop will always make me sing along. I tend to read a book a week, more when on vacation, prefer literary fiction and thrillers.
