Currently traveling in Frankfurt as a chaperone for an international MUN Conference.

Living in Kyrgyzstan for the foreseeable future. I've got lots of time to travel as I work as an international teacher, thus every break I go somewhere new! I teach both English and Cultural Studies.

Just a down to earth guy looking to meet up with new friends.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To meet new people, learn about new cultures, and have new experiences!

Music, Movies, and Books

Wrote a full novel set in a mythological bronze age world of my own creation. Working on the third draft now as I explore publishing options!

Some of my favorites:
- Sci-fi: Liu Cixin, The Dark Forest
- Dystopian: Aldous Huxley, Brave New World
- Comedy: Terry Pratchett, Small Gods
- Historical Fiction: Chinua Achebe, Things Fall Apart

Shout out to Clifford Simak, a great author from Wisconsin where I was born.
