HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

New to Couch Surfing. My family relocated from the US to Tavira, Portugal. My wife, son and I always enjoy meeting interesting people.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

New to the couch surfing scene, but have travel extensively on my own experiencing a variety of "couches". Slept on many couches playing Ultimate Frisbee along the US East Coast; "Roof" surfing while backpacking through Turkey; "beach" surfing along Washington coast.

Интересы

Innovation, sustainability, design, social-entrepreneurship, leadership are things that grab my attention. I spend time with my family, traveling, teaching, volunteering for social change, exploring our region and looking for unexpected moments with public art.
