Overview
About Me
I was born and raised in a small city in the US. Growing up I never had the opportunity to travel because of financial constraints, so I'm making up for it now...or at least that's what I tell myself. To be completely honest, I'm probably traveling now because I have absolutely no idea what I'm doing with my life! 😂
I love hanging out with fellow gay travelers and hosts, just without the pressure of anything sexual or intimate. Please don't reach out to me if your intention is to have sex.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I believe travel done "properly" has the opportunity to change the way we think. This is because it exposes us to various cultures, all of which have a series of values that they prioritize differently. My goal in my travels is to understand the values of each country I visit. I believe the best way to do this is through Couchsurfing, which allows you to view a culture from a native's perspective.
Interests
I consider myself to be fairly healthy (eating healthily and exercising regularly), but I also enjoy experiencing a few naughty indulgences from time to time. 😈 Nothing to fear though, as I have enough brain cells left over to engage in intellectual conversation. 😇

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
The most amazing thing I've ever done was probably a 3 month backpacking trip in South America, during which I leapt from a 12 story building, stayed in a haunted hotel, and hiked through the Amazon basin for four days to reach Machu Picchu (which, given how averse I am to nature, was a HUGE accomplishment)! 🙌
