I've decided to focus on dogsitting this summer and will find it difficult to have both multiple humans and canine companions simultaneously, so I am going to put couchsurfing on hold for the time being.

Looking forward to meeting new people from around the world and sharing my nice, new couch, my amazing dog Ernie, and (blind) cat Ralph.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To meet people from all over the world!

Sometimes I can be a hermit and go an entire weekend without human contact.

DC is a constantly evolving city and I bet I could learn more about it from guests. Might even get me out seeing things in my own city.

Interests

Dogs, scuba, camping, backpacking

Fascinating people, travel stories, history, politics, any liberal movement, 12-step programs, psychology, cooking, yoga, aryuveda practices, conservation movements, saving the planet from humans, rescuing animals (primarily dogs, but I won't discriminate).....

Music, Movies, and Books

Indie.

Novels.

I'm currently really into British TV. In fact, I can hardly stand to watch American shows anymore....way too overproduced and frankly, the actors are entirely too beautiful and therefore unbelievable.
