About Me

CURRENT MISSION

I have more time than money....

ABOUT ME

I quit my job in 1997 and began working "full time" as a freelance photographer. Since then I've been able to travel and do a lot of things that people with jobs just don't have the time to do. I'm pretty easy going, and after living in Hawaii for two years, I've adopted the Hawaiian way, "No worries, brah."

PHILOSOPHY

I earn my living as a photographer and love it, "The world speaks in over 1,800 languages, but sees in only 1!"

I'm also fortunate enough to work part time as a flight attendant, the pay isn't very good but the travel benefits are fantastic!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've met so many great people through CS - I still stay in touch with people I surfed with years ago - it's a great community...

Interests

I really enjoy meeting new people and learning new things. I love to travel - why read about it in a travel book when you can see it all in person?
