Why I'm on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING have a couch or 2 available for couch surfers; also live in a country setting so where you "camp" out for a nite or two; COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE I have just had my very first couch surfer...and it was great. We chatted and had a wonderful conversation. I look forward to more couch surfers!

One Amazing Thing I've Done
drove across the USA, hitting the Great Rocky Mtn range and saw a car way up top (it looked like a matchbox car) and I said "that guys nuts...I'd never go up there!" but found myself up there moments later (Snake River Canyon)! Driving up Mt. Ashland and seeing giagantic snow banks 15-20 feet high and then looking down at Crater Lake- totally awesome!
Teach, Learn, Share
I teach computer software classes at our local community college and am a private tutor for such classes; love learning from others; am a good listener; like to help others; don't mind sharing. I love science but didn't realize how much until I went to graduate ...my advisor asked me why I took so many science classes...A DUAH :)
