CURRENT MISSION

to behold beautiful landscapes and taste fine coffee, food, and hops

ABOUT ME

Back in Korea for another fly-by year of helping kids understand "English."

Had a wicked train trip to New Orleans in the fall that was heavily supported by couchsurfing. For this, we are grateful!

We have two apartments in Changwon, on the South coast of Korea, so we have some space if you need to crash.

We like to keep it easy, have a good time.
Food, coffee, music, some climbing, and interesting ways of understanding the world pass the time favorably...

PHILOSOPHY

water

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I'd say casually. Not looking to be ambassadors or anything, but meeting great people from all over the place, and building up the global community is a good time.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Had a wonderful experience surfing down the west coast and across the south, from Seattle to New Orleans. The peeps we stayed with were fantastic people. It gave a shot in the arm to the ole faith in humanity.

Many thanks.
