Hey guys! I'm a Californian boy, born and raised! I am a tennis coach, and I played tennis in college as well as professionally. I'm 27 years old, and have lived in California, Oregon, and Arizona.

I'm an experienced traveler and have been throughout parts of Asia, Australia, Europe, and more. I am very excited to try out Couchsurfing! I have heard great things about Couchsurfing from friends and family, and I look forward to meeting new people and seeing what it brings.
