About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Winging it

ABOUT ME

I love science, nature, and good beer.

Kind of forgot couchsurfing was a thing for a few years.

I don't have too much of a home base fornthe time being, mostly working at sea out of Alaska and gallivanting around between contracts.

PHILOSOPHY

"Moderation is fatal. Nothing succeeds like excess."
-Oscar Wilde

"Believe in those who seek the truth, doubt those who find it"
-Andre Gide

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I'm currently nomadic so I am not one for hosting for the time being, but am happy to venture and travel with new company.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Have hosted and surfed a handful of times here and there.
Have had nothing but lovely and welcoming experiences with everyone I've met.

Interests

Most outdoor things.
I'm relatively new to social dancing but I love it. Tango being my dance of choice. Kayaking, boats, caving

Aerial arts, silks, trapeze. Jiu Jitsu. Anything with a flow of movement.
