CURRENT MISSION

My friend, CS, and I are embarking on a peace pilgrimage around the world!

ABOUT ME

My friends think I'm a goofball and a rascal, an irrepressible optimist, that I'm a dreamer and a romantic... sunny, easy, tidy, and somehow both daring and careful.

PHILOSOPHY

Acceptance. And also, most definitely, love is the highest genius.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I find myself doing a lot of house sitting and pet sitting, usually for friends. As a matter of fact, when I pause to think about this, I haven't paid a formal rent in three years!

Interests

I am in love with life, mesmerized and mystified by life, and just plain ol' full of zeal for the miracle of life! I spend most of my time in one of four pursuits: one, cavorting with friends; two, walking, hiking, running, biking, swimming, boating, skiing and/or relaxing and/or contemplating in the hills, mountains, valleys, rivers, and woods; three, writing poems and books, or reading poems and books; and four, investigating the nature of reality.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Moments that have left me awestruck: the summit of any mountain I've ever climbed; every sunset I've ever witnessed; and every dream I wake from.

Teach, Learn, Share

I especially love sharing time with folks who love the outdoors, and also very much enjoy mystics, active philosophers, artists and responsible radicals.
