CURRENT MISSION

Working my ass off.

ABOUT ME

I've usually got my nose in the books, but I need the travel, the hitchhiking and the random uncertainty of throwing your cards to the wind to keep me sane. Other than that, 34 year old white guy. I'm an Eagle Scout, photographer, and ordained minister, but just for marrying my friends--this summer was number three!

PHILOSOPHY

I gave up on this a while ago.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

In life? As much as I think is productive.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

A couple of months, if you combine it all.

Interests

Shucks, it's be a shorter list to say what I don't find interesting--romance novels and iceberg lettuce.

• books
• traveling
• hitchhiking

Music, Movies, and Books

The Breakfast Club, Old funk and soul, Fahrenheit 451

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Canoed solo down the Columbia River from Wallula Gap to The Dalles; hitched ~14,000 miles in the US.

Teach, Learn, Share

If you're planning on hitching somewhere:

1. Have a sign, make it big and easy to read, write "please" on the bottom
2. Stand up and smile
3. Be nice to the cops if they stop you.
