A lifelong bachelor, am currently retired after working in the pharmaceutical and financial services industries. Am hoping to do some bicycle touring down the road as am rehabbing a bum knee. Enjoy living along the Jersey shore after previously residing in West Chester, Pennsylvania. The change in seasons with the tide of tourists coming and going is an experience.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Was blessed to travel throughout North America as a youth and have come to appreciate what lies over the hill. Touring and meeting people from various backgrounds allows one to be grateful for all what the world has to offer. A global investment guru and traveler Jim Rogers says it best...Life is short, ride hard, ride far! That covers a lot.
