CURRENT MISSION

Break all the unwritten rules. And maybe a few written ones.

ABOUT ME

Not to be cliched, but you'll get a better feel for me by reading everything else, references in particular. I'm a proud Albuquerquean, born and raised there. Have spent a fair amount of time abroad, but it's been a few years. As of late, started a family back in my hometown. :)

PHILOSOPHY

Wag more. Bark less.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I host when I can but more often surf. I meet up with folks when I travel. I arrange some meetups when I stay somewhere for a while. I also did the Ambassador gig for a bit back in 'Burque.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

It started in London, took off in Melbourne, continued along the coast of Oz, followed up in Albuquerque, and made its way to Germany... currently in a bit of a hiatus.

Interests

I enjoy sports, doing more so then watching, including swimming, running, snowboarding, playing on jet skis. Someday I hope to coach polevaulting, my all time fav of a few years back. I also like (swing) dancing. if I ever live by a beach I wanna get into surfing. And domestic me enjoys cooking and reading. And movies.
