Resumen
Sobre mí
I currently can't host as I'm exploring NZ until March 2024. Don't want to say I'm NOT hosting, cos I love to hear from surfers, but I won't be able to host you until I'm back home :-) <3
CURRENT MISSION
To find the good things in the world
ABOUT ME
I have moved into a tiny house!
I now have the opportunity to get out into the world and see those things I really want to see, and hopefully find more of the wonderful things (like love, beauty, humanity, joy, virtue, adventure) that I know are out there, and I've been experiencing through CS.
I'd rather live a risky magical life than a joyless mundane one.
PHILOSOPHY
I believe in liberty, love, society and humanity. I think strength is a virtue, and wisdom takes both experience and judgement. Other virtues I value include courage, honesty, generosity, joy de vive and loyalty. I think all these things are rare, in our world, but worth searching for, and encouraging.
I do not value weakness, in any of its forms...
Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I have been an enthusiastic Auckland host. Now I'm in a tiny house my options to host are limited, but not as much as when I was in a bus. I put my weight behind good causes like CS, and against personal politics or any unjust repression of liberty if I see it.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I once hosted a complete stranger by accident... long story, involving mistaken identities... It was surprisingly liberating, for both of us :-)
Since Feb 2008 I have hosted lots of people (easily over 1000 surfers), and I love it, especially when they join in my crazy life...

Algo increíble que he hecho
I've taught 70 year old ladies how to breakfall, and how to disarm a knife-wielding attacker. I think the amazing thing was that they had the cahoonies to ask to learn.
