Peace and love man! I (try to!) live by two commandments:
1) love God with all my heart and 2) do unto others as you would have done unto you..... The first is a constant challenge but the 2nd is my hobby, joy, profession and privilege! I abstain from doing things that people don't like: being ungrateful, leaving a mess, being rude...and I strive towards that golden rule: doing/being the things that I like!

Warum ich bei Couchsurfing bin

I want to travel! And I've long had an interest to go other places see how others live. I've recently become something of a journalist, that every single person on this earth has a personal story and I want to hear it! Up until now, I've really only been exposed to my corner of the world and I'm missing out on a whole other half of longitude. So, to answer this box's question: I'm here to meet you -and to help with the dishes!

Interessen

Stand up comedy, I've been performing since 2002! Baseball/baseball history, rock history, making others happy! when I see someone deep in thought or grieved about something, I talk to them! People will always be my biggest interest/hobby. Talking to them, helping them get through problems, hearing them out. I'll eventually pursue a degree in psychology because the mind is so fascinating! Anatomy and physiology is too. Playing the harmonica poorly, surfing, enjoying my life and helping others enjoy theirs too.

Musik, Filme und Bücher

BLUES:, the roots of American music! the British Invasion of course, Arcade Fire
(a little), The Doors, the whole Woodstock scene, this unusual stuff they play on local college radio (hard to explain!)
Mob movies! But really just Casino and Goodfellas/anything Scorcesse ...
yeah, a few girl movies too: Notting Hill, Love Actually and The Lake House (i think that's it for those), Shawshank Redemption, REAL action movies like Death Wish, Death Proof, Quentin Tarantino movies...good foreign dramas, documentaries, those really bad but good Netflix movies (Mega Shark vs. Crocasaurus! Raptor Island!), Star Wars of course -the old 1s!
Besides the Bible and this Woodstock book I rented, I don't read much!

Eine tolle Erfahrung, die ich gemacht habe

mmm... I talked to clint eastwood! I can say water in vietnamese . I get to make a difference at work, in people's really bad day and sometimes get to be the love that they lack.

Lehren, lernen, teilen

I guess I can teach you how to speak vietnamese (but just one word)! I'm ready to learn whatever you got for me and I like to share, I always pack extra lunch for whoever I work with!

Was ich mit Gastgebern teilen kann

-Laughter: it usually accompanies me!
-Love: seeing people die in my line of work causes me to love those around me and take friendships seriously
-Good memories
-I'll share the load in cleaning and pulling my weight!
