I am a semi retired polymath with deep interests in history and technology. I write under yet another pseudonym and occasionally, I am published. Sadly it's poetry, so you're not likely to have read it. I take photos in a way that most people do these days, nothing terribly serious.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I've been here since the first days, why not keep the good things rolling?

Interests

Currently: Histories of the Caucasus, Photojournalism, Borzois, and Fernet.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I once jumped a 40' tall cactus on a dirtbike, when I was ten.

Teach, Learn, Share

What I can teach you to excellence is how to make the perfect cocktail, for any occasion. I'll probably also take one or two million pictures.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I'll write the most lovely reference you'll ever get. Emotionally repressed men will cry, grandmothers will laugh, the comatosed will wake.

Depending on the mood will have a grand time, or a quiet time, or a regular time. Whatever time it might be, it will be the best of times.
