CURRENT MISSION

To see the world from as many perspecitves as i can manage -- there's no such thing as a view from nowhere and this little planet has so much to see.

ABOUT ME

- I'm fun, funny, and somewhat intelligent (or at least I like to think so).
- I make stiff drinks, bad puns, and try to make decent meals.
- I like to meet and get to know new people. Those I don't connect with I'm happy to have met, and move on from. Those I do connect with I tend to keep around indefinitely.
- I love taking pictures on my travels. If I thought I could make any money out of it, I'd seriously consider going into travel writing and photography.

PHILOSOPHY

My personal philosophy is probably best (and easiest) summed up by these 3 quotations, possibly cheesy:

"There are a thousand thousand reasons to live this life, every one of them sufficient."
(Marilynne Robinson, Gilead.)

"In history there are no control groups. There is no one to tell us what might have been." (Cormac McCarthy, All the Pretty Horses)

"I was never not coming here. This was never not going to happen."
(Elizabeth Gilbert, Eat Pray Love)

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I have stayed with many people and am now finally able to return the favour :-)

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Met some really kind and friendly hosts in Paris, Bordeaux, Prague, Porto, Lisbon, San Francisco, Montreal. Also spotted some home-made advertising on couch surfers in Venice.

Have just started hosting, so far had great travellers from Portland, Indiana and California.

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

Most things in life are amazing to me, I can't really pick just one.

教，学，和分享

Travelling is exciting and full of fun experiences, but to an extent that's just its superficial appeal. Travelling offers the opportunity to go out your front door without looking back and to meet each continent, country, city, town, each person, as your neighbour.
