ABOUT ME

"Trying to define yourself is like trying to bite your own teeth." -Alan Watts Despite the quote, here goes: Tall, thin, currently blond, sociable, optimistic, adventurous, and spontaneous. I constantly seek new and exciting challenges.
I enjoy my freedom and am so appreciatve that I live in a world that allows me to travel and have such wonderful experiences.

I relish wild, off-the-wall humor.

One of the characteristics of a creative thinker is: Overflows with ideas--many of which will never be developed. For better or worse, this definitely describes me.

PHILOSOPHY

Aw, don't fence me in by asking me to sum up my personal philosophy in this little box.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I've done limited hosting but mostly because my living area is so small.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Mostly with meet-ups for drinks and city tours. I did have a five-star surfing experience. A potential host I'd contacted in one city was going to be attending a conference in a nearby city but had a room with two beds so I was spoiled!

Music, Movies, and Books

So many but I will whittle:

Music: Pretty eclectic collection

Books: I teach reading and don't think I can limit this to under 100 titles.

Teach, Learn, Share

Well, I could teach you how to do a headstand on a surfboard. I'm sure there's a huge demand for that.
