CURRENT MISSION

To provide a fun experience to couchsurfers passing through.

ABOUT ME

I'm much more interested in you but, sticking to the topic, let me say that I love to share stories and to show people this wonderful place where I live. I'm motivated and inspired by the variety of life. I really appreciate the connections I've made with people while exploring the globe and look forward to more in the future. I prefer spontaneous adventures to places I've never been, so naturally I love this community!

PHILOSOPHY

Treat others the way you would have them treat you.
To thine ownself be true.
Remember your humanity, and forget the rest.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love meeting new people, and that is part of the reason I travel. Once a month I host an event at the Laguna Beach Artwalk which features dozens of gallery exhibits with free music and wine. My wife and I are currently road tripping across the USA from California to Florida!
