关于我
CURRENT MISSION
Everyone is trying to be happy, sheltered from the cold wind of making money and getting older. Traveling, and helping travelers, is maybe the most solid shelter there is. It's a paradox!
ABOUT ME
I am heady, a little solitary, but maintain a few close friendships. I tend towards cynicism but have a romantic heart that is aching to sail away. I am thoughtful, open-minded, and love the immense differences and reassuring similarities between most (all?) people.
Having hosted a few times now, it seems important to say I'm gay. That doesn't influence whom I'll host, though.
PHILOSOPHY
It's too expensive to live here in NY, and very many people want to visit. I don't take full advantage of this place and can't justify my living expense to myself without freely sharing my privilege. After all, from heaven, every house looks like a hospice, so it's silly not to give freely.
我为什么加入 Couchsurfing
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
Have hosted a few great travelers. Can't wait to get on the road myself
兴趣
Just got a piano and am totally engrossed with it. Meditation is gradually becoming a bigger part of my life. I play go (badly), take long walks listening to whole albums, and love dogs with all my heart. Seriously, floppy ears and big brown eyes and I swoon (those are good qualities in people, too).

音乐、电影和书籍
A slice of my aesthetic life, 8.10.2012:
Watched 'Death for Five Voices' by Werner Herzog
Listened to 'Les Noces' by Igor Stravinsky
Read 'Consider the Oyster' by MFK Fisher, but mainly to find a recipe
我做过的一件不可思议的事情
I was trying on a suit in San Francisco when John Waters walked by and said, 'You look spiffy!' I bought it, of course.
I befriended a wild dog on Koh Samui in Thailand who escorted me for a mile across the brush to meet a friend at a seaside restaurant. We were assailed on the way by an unfriendly pack of wild dogs, but my new friend barked and growled and scared them off!
教,学,和分享
I'm happy to teach you Mandarin, which is my job, too. If you can cook, especially in my dinky kitchen, I'd love to learn how you do it.
