About Me

CURRENT MISSION

leap and the net will appear

ABOUT ME

I've left the U.S. with my wife and dog to live and travel throughout the world. We're both expats/nomads/vagabonds/travelers who enjoy making friends and getting to know the culture and language of the places we're living in.

PHILOSOPHY

anything you do will come back to you times three. so it's better to send out as much positivity and good deeds as possible.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I enjoy meeting other people from around the world and especially locals from whichever country I'm living in at the time.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I'm new to couch surfing. A friend of mine has been trying to talk me into joining to meet other people and joining in on the social activities around town. We'll see how it goes...

Interests

I like learning new languages, reading, seeing movies, skiing, snorkeling, scuba diving, kayaking, and pretty much any non-team sport.

Music, Movies, and Books

pretty much anything. i love cheesy horror and sci-fi movies. plus almost anything with subtitles.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

It's hard to say just one thing. I've slept on the edge of live volcanoes, I've walked where ancient kings lived, I've laughed with people whose language I didn't know, I've fought for my life against a home invasion, I've volunteered in random countries to try to make a difference in the world, and I'm just getting started.

Teach, Learn, Share

I like showing people around the city and advising them on a great, hidden place to chill out and have coffee in. I'm a speech therapist, so I'm pretty good at helping non-native English speakers improve their accents in exchange for some insights into their native language.
