CURRENT MISSION

Explore Vital Opportunities. Share joy. Meet as many strangers as I can. Make friends whenever possible. I'm putting Spanish on hold and trying Italian for 2025.

ABOUT ME (wrote this *cringe* in the early 00s and not deleting it because it's aspirational. These days I mostly try to enjoy each moment as they are.)

I observe the world with kind judgment and practical optimism. I always smile because I am good enough. I act with compassion because I am thankful for life, the universe and everything. I accept failure and my weaknesses because I learn from them as I continue to develop my whole being. I greet, praise and celebrate everyone with deep sincerity. I live in the present because it is my gift, I share this gift with anyone who accepts it. I claim for myself unconditional happiness.

PHILOSOPHY

I discover happiness and joy in any activity. If none is found, there’s usually a lesson to be learned.

Interesting and enthusiastic individuals find it quite difficult to get bored.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I can be your free travel guide around the places I’ve been especially if they involve food.

I want to visit happy couch surfers in the UK & the rest of Europe. Then, off to the Americas.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've hosted and surfed a few times. But, I truly enjoy sleeping in my Couchsurfing friends' couches unofficially and just spending time with them. So I don't think those really count.

I love travelling with travelers who have BEEN AROUND.
