About Me

CURRENT MISSION

FUN..FUN..FUN...keep it simple and easy

ABOUT ME

"Vive le Québec Libre"
Google this word...Desiderata...by Max Ehrmann...read.
I think this sums me up pretty well.
I believe in LOVE.
I believe in Nelson Mandela and Barack Obama.
I believe in Sharing... Giving and Taking.
I believe i can make a difference.
I believe women should be given a chance to rule this Planet !...but why would they want to...it's in such a mess.
Everyone wants to go to "heaven" but nobody wants to die!
Some talk a lot and say little, others talk little and say a lot
I believe that religion has no place in politics.

PHILOSOPHY

Looking, Hearing, Seeing, Feeling, Understanding, Equity,
Justice and Respect of people and nature

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Sharing the planet. I had very generous parents. I did a lot of community work in my lfe.
Someday when i am old and can't travel i will spend my time greeting couchsurfers.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Generally very good so far. Hosts have been very kind and generous. I am glad to have been able to sleep in my small campervan and relish having access to a shower.
When travelling i have tried to be as open as possible about the itinerary...which represents a chalenge when i am with 2 or 3 people of different tastes. Sharing a small space requires having to
pick-up after oneself and elevate our level of awarness.

Interests

Reading, Biking, Photography, Philosophy, Hiking and anything that is fun.
I enjoy architecture and i like to bike, walk or drive thru residential areas.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Quit my job, sold my house in 2006 and have been travelling since. Nothing amazing...just fascinating.
Spent a whole night listening to a very stressed out person and was told this was the best " conversation " he ever had. I think i said 10 words.

Teach, Learn, Share

Focus on the solution instead of the problem

Learn to compromise as a way to pleasure.

Listening is an " art " not given to all.

We all want to "save" the planet...how about starting with the inhabitants...Google " Kiva.org " and participate ...one human at a time !
