About Me

CURRENT MISSION
Remain calm and resist the new world order.
ABOUT ME
I prefer female guests .
I'm just passing through.
I've traveled to many places and I have friends who have been to many places where I haven't yet been.
Human interaction, friendship and bonding is the essence of life.

PHILOSOPHY

Be happy. Embrace detachment, impermanence, and fitness.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
Sometimes I host and sometimes I don't
Even if not hosting, I still like meeting with and talking to people who are passing through Bangkok.
If someone wishes to stay long term, I have a few rooms that I use for AirBnB where i let couchsurfers stay free for a few days.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I have hosted people from Taiwan, Singapore, USA, and Great Britain and several other countries. I love to go out for a meal or coffee to share local information. I have been living in Thailand for over fifteen years and often have a room available. I only like to visit countries where I know people in advance because they can always make you feel at home.

Interests

I love the internet, malling, exercise and movement of any kind, especially long walks and talks.
I'm thinking of becoming a prepper.
I like driving both my motorcycle and my car when the traffic isn't so bad.
I am anti globalist.
I dislike the current matrix we are forced to endure by the puppet master currency lenders.

Music, Movies, and Books

I have no culture.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I have been a professional contracted teacher/instructor on 4 continents. I scaled "Sugarloaf" in Rio de Janeiro from the back side.

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm an expert on most aspects of Thailand. If I don't know an answer, I know where to find it.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I never couchsurf myself... LOL
I always stay at hotels if I don't have friends or family putting me up in my travels.
Another option is Airbnb.
I don't have enough courage to ask to stay with a total stranger.

Countries I’ve Lived In

Colombia, Equatorial Guinea, Philippines, Taiwan, Thailand, United States
