À propos de moi

CURRENT MISSION

Smash the turtle, save the princess, watch the fireworks.

ABOUT ME

It always seemed to me that time travels slower when I'm moving around a lot and meeting new people. So let's meet up and both live long and interesting lives.

I think parts of life should have a slow motion button for theatrical effect.

Teleportation is obviously the best superpower.

PHILOSOPHY

Be nice. Help people. Smile.

Pourquoi je suis sur Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I surfed and hosted back in the day. That was put on hold when I started working in Alaska, then again when I was in Madagascar. And now I live with roommates who are not cool with having CSers over :(

I'm getting back into the community after a long hiatus.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCES

Joe- Living on your boat was the best introduction to the Whitsunday Islands one could ask for. Meeting up later to jump off the Woodpile was awesome!

Thang- You were incredibly generous. Meeting Francesco and Tim and cooking all day - best use of a rainy day in Auckland

Art and Rod- Sydney would not have been nearly as welcoming without you two.

Une aventure extraordinaire que j'ai vécue

During a storm with 35 knot winds and 30 ft seas, use the front of a fishing boat as a giant trampoline and time my jumps with the waves for massive air. Spoilers-- I fumble the landing. It turns out that, as I was falling towards the boat, the boat was also rising towards me. :P
