PHILOSOPHY

If we are dissapointed with the exploitation of people, or the degradation of the environment, we must simply set up and rely on local economies. This will in turn create stronger social bonds. The point of life is not economic success, it is happiness and harmony.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Carribean Coral Reefs are Ancient Beauty. An Environment that has obviously evolved far longer than my backyard.

Teach, Learn, Share

How to beat the system if you don't like it. Why the system sucks so bad. How and why human beings are crippling our own evolutionary process. Why life is still beautiful. Understanding Cultural Diversity engages individuals in a choice about their own lives. The experience of variety sets you free to choose your own style. If you want to know about US Corruption, assimilation, The new face of Empire and what we can do, I love to talk about this stuff. Oh-and I can fix anything in your house if I can get the tools! I want to learn about your people.
