About the host
Hosted by Doug

I love traveling the world and have been to over 40 countries and 45 states. I enjoy exploring new foods, cultures, and sites. During my spare time I like to play board games, spend time playing with my pets, and catching up on the latest TV shows. Providing a space for people traveling is why I enjoy being a host as a great experience creates lasting memories.
