About Me

Hi, I'm Reed and I would love to meet you! I enjoy the concert, bar, and hanging out scenes. I also love exploring new cities, or places I've never been on my own. Very chill and mold-able to those around me and their lifestyles. Happily married - my wife, Ruby, is awesome if you get to meet her!

PHILOSOPHY
The golden rule-- do unto others as you would have them do to you.

OUTLOOK
Write your own headlines and tell stories that aren't told. One love -- one life.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

It started back when I first bike toured in 2016. I would bike through many towns and wonder, "how can I meet new people and REALLY get a sense of this town?" It was hard to get to know people in grocery stores and gas stations, because they aren't really set up for that type of interaction. Couchsurfing enables me to do what I'm passionate about and meet new people along the way!

Interests

Basically, my interests revolve around most sports and the arts. In the past few years, my biggest hobby has been cycling. I generally like to go on hour-or-so long rides and enjoy company when I do! I have a Strava profile, feel free to connect there as well.

Also, I'm a big concert guy. I deeply enjoy live performances of music and drama.

Music, Movies, and Books

I love reading, but there's never enough time in life to read as much as I want to... I like to read both non-fiction and fiction, but in fiction I usually stick to science fiction. Non-fiction varies wildly.

I've diverse music tastes. Basically anything. I'll watch any movie worth it's salt.
