Chi sono

CURRENT MISSION

To travel around the world very slowly and meet as many new people and ideas as I can.

ABOUT ME

I grew up in Wisconsin and value Education, functioning democracy, taking care of people, and a clean environment.

I've spent most of my time writing stories either on paper or in my head. I'm a very experienced bicycle tour guide. Right now I work in a fantastic restaurant in the West Village of Manhattan.

I've also organized national political events such as the 2004 National Green Party Presidential Nominating Convention and the 2003 National Conference on Media Reform. My other home is WWW.RESTAURANTMAGNUS.com in Madison Wisconsin.

Other hobbies include painting pictures of light bulbs. Biking Biking Biking. I like to ride my bicycle.

PHILOSOPHY

"If I can imagine it, I should do something else."
"Today is the best day of my life."

Perché sono iscritto su Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I'd like to stay with and host as many people as possible. Mainly I like to invite people to drink beer or coffee and sit around and talk.

Also, I love telling stories. If you like good stories and you like to laugh then you probably want to spend time with me. If you do not like to laugh and you do not like stories and you are a generally uninteresting person you can still hang out with me but you may not like me.

NOTE: HAVING JUST MOVED TO NYC I'VE FOUND THAT THE COUCHSURFING ETIQUETTE IS DIFFERENT. I HAVE WAY TOO MANY PEOPLE WITHOUT REFERENCES TRYING TO STAY WITH ME. I JUST RECEIVED 15 EMAILS IN 2 DAYS, MOST ARE FROM PEOPLE WITH NO REFERENCES. PEOPLE WITHOUT REFERENCES ARE NOT STAYING WITH ME. THAT'S NOT HAPPENING. CS DEPENDS ON GOOD PROFILES AND TRUST. I LOOK FOR VERY COMPLETE PROFILES AND MANY REFERENCES. PLEASE TAKE THE TIME TO DO THE WORK AND COMPLETE YOUR PROFILE. IT'S STRANGE BECAUSE IT'S ONLY HAPPENED HERE IN NYC AND SO IT REALLY MAKES ME WORRY ABOUT THE SAFETY OF THE PROJECT. THAT SAID, I'VE HAD PRETTY MUCH ONLY GOOD EXPERIENCES AND I'VE BEEN INVOLVED WITH CS FOR 5 YEARS.

One final note: If you are coming with a friend please include their name and CS link.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have been hosted and hosted people.

I have hosted people at my house in Madison, Paris, and Shanghai. I like showing people around on bicycle and tell them about history and food. I'd like to host more people. Come visit!!!

Una cosa incredibile che ho fatto

I ran for Sheriff on the Green Party ticket. That was amazing.

I've also hitchhiked though West Africa, raced mountain bikes in Wisconsin, motorcycled across America, bicycled around the northern part of Corsica, led bicycle tours in Paris... o hell, i have adventures all of the time.

Insegna, impara, condividi

Politics is a great love of mine. I also know a lot about history, art, literature, poetry, wine/beer, and travel. I don't know anything about music so that my friends can teach me about it.
