I'm a mechanical engineer who is temporarily retired and relocating to the Seattle area. But before I settle down I'm traveling around the PNW in my really great 1987 Toyota Van.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm on an incredible journey full of danger and peril to explore the PNW and find as many friendly cats as possible.
