CURRENT MISSION

Gather my curiosity and courage at the edge of the unknown.

ABOUT ME

I'm a citizen therapist and amateur group dynamics theorist building online restorative systems to contain conflict and foster the survival, development and transformation of peer-support networks. I also teach table top roleplaying games to children.

PHILOSOPHY

Open the door to reality or else reality will come in through the window.

Warum ich bei Couchsurfing bin

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I've always appreciated the spirit of couchsurfing. I'm now interested in participating in it more fully. We have space for those visiting Syracuse, NY and would love host guests in our home in the Westcott neighborhood.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

It's been nearly 10 years since I've done it. I'm finally looking to do it again.

Musik, Filme und Bücher

The poetry of Pablo Neruda. The essays of Wendell Berry. I like the sound of the piano and of water. I like to watch Max Keiser joke and rant about banking terrorists.

Eine tolle Erfahrung, die ich gemacht habe

I rafted down the amazon river, got bitten by a poisonous brown recluse spider, came down with a fever, and managed to make it to a remote mountain village clinic where a local nurse was able to administer an injection of anti-venom, and was lucky enough to live to tell the tale. Ah, to be 22. I must have been crazy.

Lehren, lernen, teilen

I can tell you about teaching english as a way to make money while traveling.
