CURRENT MISSION

I'm on a summer long bicycle tour through Canada and Alaska. I've logged over 5600 miles so far and am currently working my way south back to Portland. I am so thankful to everyone on Couchsurfing and Warmshowers who have helped me along the way. For me, I want to travel around the world, see all there is to be seen, experience the unimaginable

ABOUT ME

My friends generally say I'm the guy who does everything. Obviously they are exaggerating a bit, but I do have lots of hobbies. I used to work as a engineer for Intel during the day and spend the rest of my time keeping busy with hobbies. I've lived long enough to understand that without focus, you'll never achieve your dreams. I'm pretty calm and laid back. I've traveled a lot of the world and I have some incredible stories to tell. I understand that life is a journey, full of both good and bad.

PHILOSOPHY

Don't waste a single moment, but don't be afraid to slow down and smell the roses.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've hosted a few people and stayed with a few folks a few years ago when I traveled around the world for 6 months. Hopefully it will give me good karma! My profile is a bit bare as I tend to use Warmshowers.org (profile https://www.warmshowers.org/user/92961) for most of my travel stops these days. Maybe help me out a bit and leave a reference????

兴趣

I have a lot of hobbies and interests. When I'm not not working I'm either flying airplanes, hiking in the wilderness, practicing karate, riding my bike, or dancing salsa to name a few. Here is a complete list of what I like to do.

Salsa Dancing (I've danced for 9+ years and teach)
Shotokan Karate (I'm a black belt)
Flying Airplanes (I'm a certified flight instructor / CFII)
Soccer (Indoor/Outdoor)

Scuba Diving (warm water is preferred)
Computers (well I once worked for Intel)
Music (played the trumpet since Jr. High)
Biking (Because cars suck on the weekend)
