About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Raise a herd of goats. And see the world's magic through my son's eyes.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I love having guests at my place. People have been so good to me in my travels, how can I not return the favor?

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Love the concept of Couchsurfing. I started doing it with a random Internet list of touring cyclists in 2002. I had such a good time and such random experiences (like dancing on top of a portable toilet in a Danish field to a French rock god) that as soon as I heard of CS I knew I had to be a part of it.
