Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm on couchsurfing because life's an adventure. I'm a traveller, and love meeting others who are chasing after all life can offer. I'm hoping to meet interesting people who can offer me advice on living well, and help as I traverse the world. When I'm home, my house is always open to fellow wanderers. I'm excited to meet whoever I can!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Lived on a Native American Reservation, that was life changing.

Teach, Learn, Share

Teach-Me whatever you know, I think everyone can share something!

Learn-I secretly want to learn how to grow a killer garden, and card games. I always seem to forget the games I play when I meet people.

Share-the best of yourself, that's who I'm interested in meeting. And any home recipes, cooking is my favorite.

What I Can Share with Hosts

My house is yours, there's an extra bed and key. I teach at a Science/Engineering Academy, so you could visit the futuristic school. And I usually have a neat pub/restaurant we can visit if you want to explore the town. Just let me know, and return the favor when I visit you. :)
