CURRENT MISSION

Looking for a good rope swing.

ABOUT ME

Grew up huddled around a wood stove in a small town in Maine. Moved to the big city for some education and got scared of the tall buildings. Then off to the Utah high country bumming around and following the snow. Melted in PHX for a few years and now up on the rim looking for a higher perspective.

Just here to have a good time.

PHILOSOPHY

If I can walk a mile in your shoes, you can walk a mile in my bare feet.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Just getting into it...but great so far!

Interests

Fresh air. High vantage points. Happy people. Wasatch storms. Tying flies and catching big fish. Climbing rocks. Novelty. Emergency Medicine. Generosity. High Sierras. Maine summers. Random travels. Hearing good news. Giving good news.

Always down for a new adventure. I work in a hospital but daydream about the mountains...

Music, Movies, and Books

Desert Solitaire and anything Edward Abbey is brilliant. Wilderness and the American Mind is a good read. I'll admit though, I'm really down with some nerdy philosophy stuff too. If you've heard of Ernest Becker, I'm pretty sure we'd get along. Kierkegaard is the man.
