CURRENT MISSION

To collect friendships and stories, and to help build a culture of travel.

ABOUT ME

I am a poet and a scientist. I want to know and understand 1) people, and 2) things.

PHILOSOPHY

If you can see the problem from every possible angle, then the solution will naturally arise. Unfortunately my eyes only see in one direction.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I travel on a poor man's budget, and I host people so that they can do the same.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have stayed in many homes while touring as a performance poet, and I have hosted many people in my home. Couch surfing in a short-term, intense way to get to know someone. I value my experience as a surfer and as a host.

Interests

I love learning about people. I also love science (especially astronomy), poetry, and hiking.
