CURRENT MISSION

I'm alive and well, always trying to more alive and more well.

ABOUT ME

I'm an inquisitive person. I like to talk to people and I love hot air balloons, playing music (informally), and learning things. I have 3 sisters so I get along well with girls/women.

PHILOSOPHY

I care about my individual life choices being consistent with what I see as a bigger vision for humanity. I feel strongly about being part of a cultural shift of some sort. I try to live as many of my values as I'm able and often find that it involves a good deal of resistance. I don't like exploitation. I care about thrift and resource stewardship on many levels.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I've had an amazing time meeting people and staying with them all over the world! I now have a great spot in Little Rock where I'll be happy to host.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

what a wonderful practice in having faith in humanity! So far I've had great experiences...it makes sense, yet is is still surprisingly nice to trust and be trusted by random people!

Music, Movies, and Books

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I flew in Olympia, WA near Mt. St. Helens and Ranier...really beautiful and the crowd of people we attracted was OVERWHELMINGLY fun!
