About Me

Receive the Vaccine as your Patriotic Duty, Let's All Roll Up Our Sleeves, Let's Not See a 3rd Wave As in EU.

Vaccine Produced No ill Side Effects, I received both doses. Yet, I still encounter people in public spreading misinfo concerning Vaccine. Stand up and Thwart this any chance you get, lives are at stake.

CURRENT MISSION

No ambitions, no motives--seeking new venues, new experiences, new thrills, new ideas, new continents, new social experiences, new weather and skies.

Enjoy the realness of actively being within the culture of the city rather than remaining glued at home. Prefer to be moving and taking in all I can rather than waiting around. Life is too short to wait around, instead SEIZE THE DAY!

ABOUT ME

I was raised by wolves....

PHILOSOPHY

"Men on their death beds, never say they regret not having spent more time at the office."

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I have attended many couchsurfing meets & events. London, Berlin and Munich were some of the most exciting and welcoming couch events I have experienced to date. I give out a shout out to you great Europeans from all over Europe who crossed paths with me these major cities at the events.

Do not take it personal, but I do not accept friend requests. CS is unique, we are in person, real life. I enjoy all interactions IRL with all that cross my path, to me this is more important than a friend add. I look forward to meeting you all again or for the first time in the future! All past, present, and future--you are always welcome to reach out.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have hosted and enjoy the thrill I get when someone new pushes me to explore my city in familiar or new spots as it enhances my experiences and worldview. There is no need to walk on egg shells in discussions. I may not always push a topic or start one, but I am willing to engage with any direct or leading questions on American culture tied to any aspect of it.

Interests

Nature, The Universe, Literature, Film, Internationalism, Foreign Policy, History, Geopolitics, Travel

My graduate studies focused on civil / human rights in a Cold War historical and modern international context. I thoroughly enjoy discussing movements from around the world including social justice and equity among all nations and peoples.

I also always enjoy discussing World War 2 and all the historical aspects from battles, social and cultural history to amazing feats and even controversies surrounding conduct of the USA.

I enjoy researching and writing on historical topics the most.
