About Me

Hey there travelers! I'm a simple laid back guy with few worries and plenty of ambitions. I love the outdoors, new adventures, technology, traveling, and meeting new people. I live in the Pacific Beach neighborhood of San Diego which is known for having a fun young beach vibe. The beach at Tourmaline surf park is just a block away and there are some decent bars and restaurants a few blocks away. If you'd like to stay with me please mention the top things in the list below that you'd be interested in doing. I get many requests and might not respond if you didn't take the time to read my profile. For those new to couchsurfing...it's not just a free place to sleep at night. Think of it as going to visit a friend you haven't seen in a while (it's just a new friend this time). If you 'just need a place to crash' a hostel or airbnb are great options. If I agree to host you it's because I think we'd have fun hanging out and getting to know each other. Let me know if you have anything else to offer as well. Whether you are here for a few days or months, I love showing people around and helping them get connected to San Diego!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I enjoy opening my home and mind to couchsurfers and showing people who are new to San Diego around. When travelling I want to see how people live and what their homes and daily lives are like - you can only get that awesome cultural exchange through something like couchsurfing.

Interests

Technology, hiking, snowboarding, the beach, surfing, wakeboarding, live music...and of course traveling.

Music, Movies, and Books

I like things that make me laugh or think...ideally both.
Indie rock, electronic, and hip hop are my fav types of music.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Hiking, jumping, wading, and splashing along the wild rocks and rivers of the Sespe Gorge in a two day backpacking trip.

Teach, Learn, Share

Share willingly, give freely. What's mine is yours.

Work smarter not harder.
