ABOUT ME

I'm a 41yr old single guy with a strong case of wanderlust. As an artist, I am drawn to a lifestyle that promotes self-contemplation and genuine expression, but find it is a constant struggle to maintain. I love to laugh, and I enjoy the company of folks that don't take themselves too seriously. Although honestly, I also enjoy the company of folks that DO take themselves too seriously, just not quite as much:)

PHILOSOPHY

Keep it simple.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I once visited Boston and showed up unannounced on the doorstep of friends of a co-worker. They graciously hosted me without warning, cooked some fabulous meal that blew my socks off, showed me the town, and just genuinely made me feel welcome and at home. Good stuff...
