ABOUT ME

Hey, always been a traveler and explorer. I worked in an office making maps for garmin for a couple years after college. Was bored and wanted to see the world. So went and taught english in Thailand for nearly two years and traveled all around southesat asia. I came back to america and decided i wanted to make a career of teaching so went back to school to get my teaching licence. I just accepted a postion with Aspen High School. I guess i'm going to have to brush up on my snowboarding skills.

PHILOSOPHY

I like Mark Twain's quote......â

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I try to have as much fun as possible, I like to explore new places and have a place for a person or two to crash. Its a pretty comfy little place with just a few minutes from downtown.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've done alot of hosting and love it. Its fun to show people around.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I was backpacking India a couple years ago. I was in Jaipur at a rooftop resturant and there was only one traveler there. I went and talked to her for a while. We talked for like 10 minutes and found out that we grew up a half a mile away from each other in a small town in the middle of South Dakota. What are the chances?

Most amazing thing I've done---I suppose quitting my supposedly wonderfull job and going to teach English in Southeast Asia.
