ABOUT ME

I'm an assistant professor at the University of North Texas. I got into couchsurfing in early 2008, and I couchsurfed a bunch from 2008-lat 2009. I've also hosted some, and I just bought a beautiful house in Denton, TX, so I decided to get back into hosting

Eine tolle Erfahrung, die ich gemacht habe

I saw a rainbow hit the desert. It was beautiful and we got there at the perfect moment. It's still my favorite picture of all the pictures I've taken.
