I am from the Midwest yet lived in the San Diego area since the mid 80's. I lived in the Chicago area until I was 14 then moved to a Wisconsin dairy farm. I lived the big city life and the country life and gained experience from both lifestyles. Southern California is a whole different experience.
I have traveled to all 50 states and this is a beautiful country.
I love seeing our National Parks. I've also traveled outside the United States to Uganda, New Zealand, Mexico, Korea, Hong Kong, Cuba, China, Vietnam and Taiwan.
I ride my motorcycle (Harley) not to be cool but because I really enjoy it. Been riding since I was 10 on my own.
I grew up on them and it was like a tool on the dairy farm. It's also how I release stress and relax.
I like to hike in the mountains and the red woods and around the world. Wherever it's beautiful...

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

I have met many people from around the world and made friends with many of them. I hope and plan to meet more great people from around the world and learn about and visit their homeland. To share my experiences with others who don't have the opportunity to do the same. Couch surfing has showed me what a small world it is and I have learned no matter where we are from we all just want to live and enjoy life and be loved, so why not?

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

Raised my children to grow up to be great men and made an impact on their lives. Now they are making an impact on my life. They are my best accomplishment, nothing else matters.

教，学，和分享

I love to learn and hope I can teach others what I've learned and most I have learned on my own and through many mistakes.
The more you give or share the more comes back to you. CS has showed me this too.
In Life we all learn "ask and you shall receive" sometime we just forget to.
Always be true to yourself.
