Why I’m on Couchsurfing
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I started on Couchsurfing by accident while looking for a place to stay in Bellingham a couple of years ago. A nice Couchsurfing couple invited me to stay with them and then asked me to get on the website and write them a review. Since then, I've had many great experiences surfing and hosting, mostly in Chicago and Mississippi.
Interests
I've started to learn to call contra and square dances, and love it. I'm also involved with gulf islands community radio at www.islandsradio.ca

Music, Movies, and Books
Life has been good to me, and it makes me feel good to We all have different motivations in our day to day lives, but we also all have more similarities than differences. Within reason and reality, it's important to trust others. The more we all have confidence in each other and ourselves, the more we can collectively achieve.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Most recently, a barred owl swooped out of the forest and on to a nearby branch, and we had a little staring contest.
Although I've told the story so many times that it's become a joke, I once played a song onstage with my heroes, Ween.
I've spent a number of summers in state and national parks which gave me a variety of interesting experiences.
