I'm just a man about town. I love going places I'm not supposed to. I love my life and enjoy meeting others that feel the same!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

We are checking it out for a weekend getaway and considering hosting ourselves.

Music, Movies, and Books

Is it well written by someone awake and impassioned? I love it.

Music, anything and everything. Regardless of the genre if the musicians are talented I want to experience it. On any given day I can alternate between several different, wildly varying music types, or I can spend days listening to the same discography. If it's live they don't even have to be particularly talented!

As far as movies go I prefer things I can learn from, documentaries and films with a message. Yes, I'll check out the newest big budget blockbuster, but I'll probably be really judgey.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I got up this morning, and it was glorious!

I have founded and operated several businesses with different degrees of success. I have a plethora of interesting hobbies that I even manage to make time for occasionally. I've raised a child to adulthood with at least moderate success.

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm more of a facilitator than a teacher myself, but I love getting people hungry to learn together with the right teacher. I founded and run(not so active lately) a non profit based on teaching art using repurposed, reclaimed materials. The basic idea is to take some of the mental road blocks out of the way by using things perceived as garbage.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Oh, we are going to cook for you. I have a pretty neat skill set if you want to learn some things the man doesn't want you to know ;)

Countries I’ve Visited

Canada, Mexico
