About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Liberate creative expression.

ABOUT ME

Super easy going, get along with just about anyone, and always striving to be conscientious.. This about sums up my ideals:

"To live content with small means; to seek elegance rather than luxury, and refinement rather than fashion; to be worthy, not respectable, and wealthy, not, rich; to listen to stars and birds, babes and sages, with open heart; to study hard; to think quietly, act frankly, talk gently, await occasions, hurry never; in a word, to let the spiritual, unbidden and unconscious, grow up through the common -- this is my symphony."
William Henry Channing

PHILOSOPHY

Recognize the common dignity of all beings.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I was an avid user of the Casual Commuter system in San Francisco. Its very similar to Couch Surfing.. A way of organizing like-minded people to more efficiently utilize resources. Basically, "casual commuters" gather in various places around the surrounding areas to become passengers in cars traveling into San Francisco.. It saves gas/emissions, saves toll charges (since carpools are free), and it allows you to meet great people you would never ordinarily meet! (well, great people most of the time... an occasional OCD driver in a green Range Rover with plastic lining the whole interior to prevent residue on her lovely leather!)
