Active 62 year old Airline Pilot, Geophysicist, Teacher, Business owner and Philanthropist. Details on Linkedin.com . I love to meet interesting people and have traveled the world. It is a pleasure showing visitors what the great State of Colorado has to offer. I would like to explore trading houses over the winter, ski here for golf and pickleball there!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Just hate hotels and like meeting local people. There is so much more to a destination when pointed in the right direction. It helps that I have been in the traveler's shoes throughout the world. I can help, my time is flexible and I am reasonably tolerant.

Music, Movies, and Books

Counting Crows, Forest Gump, Anything by John Grisham. I am a fan of the TV show survivor. Old classic rock gets my blood flowing. Just saw the Shape of Water and enjoyed it immensely.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

The Pikes Peak Marathon. 26.2 miles in length and 8000 + vertical feet in elevation to the top of Pikes Peak and back from Manitou, CO. Also reversed my diabetes with a KETO medical protocol.

Teach, Learn, Share

My more complete professional profile is on Linkedin and I would love to connect there with smart, travelling international folks.
