Back to STL after living in Germany for a few years.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

A new city brings new opportunities - I want to explore and to meet interesting and open people.

Interests

I enjoy sailing, trekking, politics, gardening, cycling, art, visiting museums, film, reading, coffee, tea, food, etc.

• gardening
• socializing
• cycling
• sailing

Music, Movies, and Books

Travel literature, fiction. I recently finished Freya Stark's "The Southern Gates of Arabia", and "Lanark", and am reading "La Comédie Humaine" and "Ways of Seeing".

I would watch "2001: A Space Odyssey" again, and again.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I once rode my bike across the state of Iowa on a self-supported trip, and once again rode my bike across the state as part of RAGBRAI, perhaps the biggest party on bicycles that there is.

Teach, Learn, Share
