I'm a deck hand on a ship, and I love the water! I love to travel (I bet everybody's profile says this) and since I live on the ship while I'm working, I don't yet have a permanent home on land. I'm from Michigan, which is where I'm currently staying, but I have dreams of living in the Pacific Northwest. Once I am settled, I shall be "accepting guests" :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm embarking on a cross-country road trip; my first and probably longest! Every penny saved on hotels is another penny saved towards a home of my own.

Music, Movies, and Books

My new favorite author is Cyndi Dale.
"What type of music do you like," is one of my least favorite questions ever. I like a large variety, it always depends on my mood or what I need to get done, and even if I could tell you the name of the song (sometimes) or the name of the artist (rarely) I can almost never identify what genre it would fall under. But I can say without a doubt that I like music.
I'm really into period pieces when it comes to movies. And anything funny.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Climbed up a ladder in total darkness, with 40 lbs of firefighting gear on my person, and opened the hatch above my head without falling :P

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach you how to tie a bunch of different knots, and I can teach a bit of nutrition. I'm learning a lot about astrology, and would love to learn how to use a sewing machine without tangling all the strings together.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I'm like Frederick the Mouse. But if there is anything material that would be of assistance, I'd be happy to do that too.
