Hi all. I'm a disabled veteran. I'm most interested in the field of philosophy but not limited to. I live in a house on a ranch by Pyramid lake in Nevada. I'm interested in learning and enjoy discussion on a wide variety of subjects. I mostly am involved in personal relations and my lifestyle doesn't always let me make the kind of personal connections that I feel like a healthy human needs in order to grow and thrive. Although I do have a great group of friends here (some even childhood).

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Looking to have a great time with good company and maybe make a connection with someone special.

Interests

I enjoy riding, hiking, video games, movies, books, shooting, anime, comics, dog training, tinkering in electronic components, writing and generally trying new things. Smoking 4:20 friendly.

Music, Movies, and Books

I can appreciate most things. I am not too fond of pop music. I like to appreciate things and not just because a large number of people do the same. Americana, jazz, blues, even heard some polka that I really dug on. Siddhartha, a thousand autumns for Jacob de Zoet, catch 22, thus spoke Zaruthustra, the dark tower series, hitchhikers guide to the galaxy series, pretty much anything by Cormac McCarthy.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I'm a combat veteran. I raised my hand to go to Iraq when my unit asked for volunteers to act as replacements for troops already in theater. Don't know if this counts as amazing or stupid but I also have jumped out of approximately 24 airplanes/helicopters.

Teach, Learn, Share

Philosophical principle and debate. A more in depth view of morality. Shooting, Infantry tactics and fieldcraft. Basic ranching and farming, chess, video games, horseback riding, fishing, survivalism and whatever topic I happen to be involved with at the time.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I'm trainable and can pick up a lot with a little time and effort. I can make a valuable addition to any team.

Countries I’ve Visited
