CURRENT MISSION

To be the tallest and coolest surfer you ever hosted.

ABOUT ME

Jazz musician, avid reader, movie goer, amateur photographer. I love meeting new people.
Pretty easy going, and like to consider my self a great surfer. Always respectful of my hosts. I travel to see beautiful things and experience new cultures!

PHILOSOPHY

Intelligence through humility.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I host people whenever I can and occasionally meet up with my fellow hometown surfers. I try to surf whenever I travel--it's the best way to travel.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have met some truly wonderful people. Now that I have experienced Couchsurfing I can't imagine doing anything else.

Interests

I am a jazz musician in my spare time. I play saxophone and piano. I love reading, being with my friends, running, movies, history, basketball, technology, photography, art, philosophy, and traveling. Oh, and I also love board games! Settlers of Catan, Ticket to Ride, Pandemic, and Power Grid are my favourites.

I can teach you how to play and read music! I can teach you how to build a computer. I can also teach you how to read, write, and speak English.
