Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I surfed for my first time in Vienna and attended my first ever event Vienna Calling CS 10th Birthday. Had a blast and instantly goot hooked into the CS community. I've had many great experiences in the CS experience and I'd like offer the same back to other fellow wonderers.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Hitchhiked/backpacked from Eastern to Western Europe for 4 months

Currently thru-hiking the Pacific Crest Trail

Served in the US Army and deployed to Iraq

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm huge into the outdoors and do tons of backpacking, I'm always willing to give advice on trails, equipment, and guidance with thru-hiking. My second biggest hobby is homebrewing using all grain method, ask me about it! I'm also a gardener and like to make my own hot sauces. My full time job is a network administrator, so anything technology related I can probably help you with.
