About Me

ABOUT ME - I'm DAVID (my son is Desmond)

Vermont resident with many interests - loves to travel and experience new people, foods and cultures. Radio show host, community activist, aging athlete, proud dad...all around good guy :-)

Love to host and share my little town. I'm walking distance to EVERYTHING.

When traveling, I like the budget / couch route, because people make the travel special.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Appreciating the opportunities to meet people in my and their houses to share meals, experiences and provide alternatives to the traditional options for overnighting.

Recently purchased house in center of town, with a few sleeping options depending on whether my sons are staying with me or not. Last minute appeals accepted.

music - cooking - healthy living - travel - world peace.
