CURRENT MISSION

To spend more time on boats

ABOUT ME

I am always an easy-going person and do my best to be happy and avoid stress.

Also I am VERY allergic to cats. So if I ask to stay with you PLEASE let me know if you have one (I've had 1 or 2 too many hosts forget to do this, and it's a bad situation).

PHILOSOPHY

Teach your children well.

Pourquoi je suis sur Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I am a big advocate of CS, and frequently encourage others to join to build up a membership of good people.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

First experience was in Switzerland with fabulous host PEIRO in June 2007 after 3-day hike through Liechtenstein. Great host, great food, great wine.

Since then I've hosted several times.

Looking forward to building on that.

Morceaux de musique, films et livres

I love watching movies, mostly comedy/foreign/fantasy/war/romantic. I absolutely CANNOT watch horror/suspense films, or even previews, so please don't ask me to because I CAN succumb to peer pressure.

I enjoy a large variety of music, including country and excluding Pearl Jam.

I am currently in the middle of a half-dozen books that I've been working on for as many months, and look forward to getting back to 1 or 2 books a week. I prefer books that aren't written in the first person, and like to jump around genres and topics. I find book groups weird.

Une aventure extraordinaire que j'ai vécue

Once sang "American Pie" with Joschka Fischer. All >8 minutes of it.
