I'm a Couch Potato and I love it! I'm a one-legged old man and enjoy life. I have something like 20 children, all boys/men, all were adopted or foster children, but are adults now. I like to travel and have spent a lot of time in the Philippines. I'm retired after having spent years working in the telecom industry and as a Special Education teacher.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To meet new people and learn more about others.

Interests

I love to read, particularly true crime. I do watch a lot of TV at the moment. My favorite TV shows are: Law & Order, Law & Order SVU, Elementary, Chicago Fire, Chicago PD, Chicago Med, Code Black, Madam Secretary and Homicide Hunter. I also love to travel, particularly road trips. I love good conversation and good food!

Music, Movies, and Books

My favorite music is anything by the Beatles, and other music of that era. I also love Musicals such as Beauty and the Beast, Les Miserables, and Phantom of the Opera. My favorite author is Tom Clancy, but there are others I like as well. My favorite movie is A Few Good Men, but I also enjoy all of the Star Wars films and James Bonds movies.
