I'm extremely laid back. I've been told I seem older than I am. I like to have a good time and I love to laugh. Sometimes I'm funny. I'm a dabbler in a lot of things. I like to draw, read, paint, play instruments, watch movies; I enjoy photography, traveling, eating, sleeping, etc.

I get along with most people I meet, both in my professional life and my personal life.

LIFE PHILOSOPHIES:

People will forget what you said. People will forget what you did. But people will never forget how you made them feel.
--Maya Angelou

In the end, we only regret the chances we didn't take.

In 900 years of time and space, I've never met anyone who wasn't important.
--Doctor Who

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

It's a way to (hopefully) connect with people. I'd like to travel eventually and this is a great way to do so.

EXPERIENCE:

None, though I have slept over at friends' places. I've slept on couches, church floors, gym floors (the latter two for the club sport I was in)

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can put in effort to cook (I will need internet access and patience). I'm not well known for cooking.

I am clean and a gracious person.

I can provide comedic relief. I am somewhat okay with guitar and piano. I can belt out a tune if karaoke/shower type singing/car type singing is your style.
