About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To learn all I can, about my many interests in life.

ABOUT ME

I am a deep thinker, I like to analyze ideas and concepts. I believe in living out convictions through tangible actions.
I am married w/ children. For the last year and a half, we have been residing in Costa Rica. Am loving the weather, the peaceful + relaxed attitudes of the locals, the exotic birds, tropical plants, incredible fruit, etc... It has been an incredible adventure, and a great place to home school children.
I always have something new to learn!!!

PHILOSOPHY

Seeker of truth!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

We currently host gusts who wander into our neck of the woods here in costa rica.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Have surfed my way through several central american countries. Have met some great people.

Interests

I am currently working on developing a photography skill set. I used to roast coffee for a living. I am very interested in food. (Growing, processing, preserving, etc.) As a family we try to live as close to the land as we can.
I also used to work for a lab. where I did research on human nutrition (hydroponics, mass spec., tissue culturing, etc.) I am interested in human nutrition especially as it relates to health and wellness.
