Jim, California native through and through, reluctant Silicon Valley professional, and always looking to be more a citizen of the world. I've lived in San Francisco since 2005.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

I am mostly here as a host as I feel it necessary to pay forward the generosity so many have given to me during my travels.

I believe the best travel experiences and memories are when you have some local connection, and I don't mind making friends the world over.

音乐、电影和书籍

My favorite book is Mediations, not really a book; Gattaca is my favorite film; and music is all over the place, lately it's whatever cheesy pop is on and bluegrass.
