我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I am trying to make the whole system of meeting people thru couchsurfing.com as solid and tru as the human condition is possible. translation: I try to be good to people and open to thier goodness and beauty.

cs2 costs money and I want to give money, I will when I can afford it. I am looking at another 8 months of traveling before I can think about giving my money away.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I hitchhiked across Alaska with my mom when I was 12 and that was really the first time that I have experienced the types of connections that travelers make with one another. It paved the way for my passion for travel. in Oct and Dec 06, I couch surfed several times while travelling around the U.S. on my motorcycle. I then was traveling around China, Europe and the U.K. couchsurfing a bunch. Fantastic time and thanks to everyone who has hosted me. I look forward to doing the same for another traveler.

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

Everyday of my entire life has held at least one tiny gem wonderous beauty. Ask me for a story and I'll tell you some of the amazing things that I've been lucky enough to do.

教，学，和分享

I am passionate about photography and architecture. these two fields of creativity occupy both the etherial realm of abstract, purely creative art as well as the tangible technical laws of physics, economy and environmental/social sustainability.

If there are others that like to explore the theory and connections found in the capacity for creativity, I'd love to talk.
