CURRENT MISSION

Road trip to Alaska

ABOUT ME

I live for the outdoors and adventures with fun people or alone. Carpenter, reader, sailor, backcountry snowboarder. I am on a mission to keep it simple, a small pickup, a snowboard, and a bike.

PHILOSOPHY

I try to be as simple as possible, no TV, no extensive wardrobe, no trappings besides my gear. A cup of coffee in the morning, a few beers at night, good food, good friends, interesting conversation, a good book to curl up with. Good tequila.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Just bought a new work truck in Seattle and driving it back to Alaska looking for powder snow, any couches offered would keep me from a cold night in the back of my truck. When I get to Alaska I would love to start hosting others.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I am new to the web site, but I have lived on many couches and a closet too! General vagabonding around.

Interests

I am an outdoor adventurer and traveler. Anything outdoors: climbing, sailing, mountain biking, surfing, tide pooling, carpentry, any skills that can help me to be self sufficient.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

In a kayak off the Pacific Coast of Panama, solo, land barely in sight in all directions. Every late night campfire with good company. On top of a mountain.
