Amiable and friendly, doesn't take oneself too seriously. I have a green thumb, love to cook, read, bike. I am a bicycle mechanic, photographer, and life coach. I love animals. I don't smoke cigarettes. I like being genuine with people (and vise versa). I love music - especially house, electronic, new wave, 60/70s rock....

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I stayed with some folks with Warm Showers when I went bicycling cross country, and it was lovely! I don't why I have signed up here since then. I am looking to add more travel in my life, and meet fun people along the way.
