ABOUT ME

€œToday you are You, that is truer than true. There is no one alive who is Youer than You. ~Dr. Seuss

PHILOSOPHY

Oh, if a tree could wander
and move with foot and wings!
It would not suffer the axe blows
and not the pain of saws!
For would the sun not wander
away in every night ?
How could at every morning
the world be lighted up?
And if the ocean's water
would not rise to the sky,
How would the plants be quickened
by streams and gentle rain?
The drop that left its homeland,
the sea, and then returned ?
It found an oyster waiting
and grew into a pearl.
Did Yusaf not leave his father,
in grief and tears and despair?
Did he not, by such a journey,
gain kingdom and fortune wide?
Did not the Prophet travel
to far Medina, friend?
And there he found a new kingdom
and ruled a hundred lands.
You lack a foot to travel?
Then journey into yourself!
And like a mine of rubies
receive the sunbeams? print!
Out of yourself ? such a journey
will lead you to your self,
It leads to transformation
of dust into pure gold!
~Rumi

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I love hosting when I can... problem is my schedule does not always permit. I have been a gracious recipient of amazing couch surfing opportunities... and now I have a beautiful home in Blue Lake (7-minute drive to Arcata) and would like to return the favor to fellow couch surfers when I can.

If I am not able to offer a stay, I may be able to meet for coffee or tea.

COUCH SURFING EXPERIENCE

An angel couch surfing host, hosted a friend and me while traveling through Mumbai, India. I was illin, and he not only provided a 5-star room, but also directed me to a local physician that provided much needed medical attention. I'd like to return the favor by hosting other couch surfers, and continue to meet amazing people all over the world!
