About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To stay 'outside' the box..... I get out for a bit, but keep finding that I am back inside again!

ABOUT ME

I am very easy going, love to meet people and hear their stories. My partner, Bobbi, and I are usually in motion, we are up early, out to see what there is to see and do and ready to have a pint, hear some music and solve the problems of the world by early evening.

PHILOSOPHY

Treat others as you would want to be treated, with respect, dignity and honesty.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Host whenever we can, promote couchsurfing by telling anyone who has an interest. We keep tabs on the group posts for anyone traveling cross country, that seems to be where our surfers are headed, we are pretty convenient to a couple of major highways.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

We have hosted surfers several times, typically those who were passing through this area on their way to more exotic destinations. We have also been guests in Ireland, Germany and the U.S.

Interests

Stepping outside of our comfort zone occasionally helps us grow and embrace new ideas and cultures. We love food, music (from Mumford & Sons to Alt J to Joe Bonamassa to Fun) - love suspense movies, animals (as evidenced by the zoo we have) and closing down an Irish pub while the band keeps playing, hiking in the country and getting lost in the city.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
