CURRENT MISSION

to give back to that which is given to me

ABOUT ME

I love to be active, interested, and engaged with life. Boredom is impossible, because I feel there is so much to see, do, hear, read, and experience that there is no way to accomplish it all. I have a number of particular interests--but this sentiment underlies all of those interests.

PHILOSOPHY

we are all in this together.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I try to show the utmost kindness to every weird or amazing person i get the chance to meet. I love to simply provide accommodations when needed, but even better, I appreciate the chance to make new friends, real ones, face to face. The best part about couchsurfing is that it takes the focus away from the material destination while enhancing your experience of that destination, and I enjoy being part of that.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

My couchsurfing experience has been nothing but cool. People I would never have otherwise met in my life have been part of some one-of-a-kind experiences, and have also sometimes just been part of some very pleasant evenings. CS is the kind of thing that just reminds you of the good in people, and encourages the continuation of that good.

兴趣

I enjoy being inspired by strange things. Music is important to me, as is writing (i prefer to write poetry, but i enjoy reading all forms). Sports and art greatly interest me. And a good drink always perfects my day, whether it be tea, coffee, beer, wine, etc...

but hey, we can discuss all that later on.
