Overview
About Me
I hate the about me portion of almost every site. Probably because it his difficult for me to describe myself because when I start these, I feel I have no certainties, at first. I unfortunately do not have a list of hard core favorites with regard to music, food or environment. The only certainty is that I am happy and open each day to the day and what the present moment can bring.
The future should be considered and the past should be remembered. So, maybe that is what there is to know about me, I am engaged in each moment. I like to be outdoors but I really appreciate my private indoor moments of seclusion. My favorite part about watching and being amongst large groups is style. Clothing, shoes, hair, make-up is walking art that is relative to income, location, interest in clothing for function versus identity.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I need it like I need air so this is a way to travel, meet new people and possibly see a new place in a way I had not considered.
Interests
I like to run and lift weights, try new foods, kayak (Stillwater access but I like rapids as well), talking about philosophical topics about the fate of man, personality types and 'what if' scenarios.

Music, Movies, and Books
See, I believe I mentioned that these questions are hard for me to answer. I have no favorite music or book but Harlem Nights is my favorite movie. I have an understandable reason and will share, if asked.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Hmmm...Nothing, yet! I have some things that other people deem as amaizing but alas I suffer from the condition of comparisons. Since, I have cured no one, invented nothing, saved not a person or a soul, I wonder if my milestones are worth mentioning.
Teach, Learn, Share
I am reading a book called The Intelligent Woman's Guide: To Socialism, Capitalism, Sovietism and Fascism by George Bernard Shaw. It is interesting book giving a reader, what I consider, layman direction and definition for the terms listed above. The book seems to be drawing the reader to consider solutions for what ails our societies through specific questions about distribution of wealth and labor and how the answer to that question is what is ruling how our societies function. If you read it, let me know because I want to talk to someone about it. What is your perspective?
Also, if you like to travel learn Esperanto. It is a language that was developed in 1887 with the hopes of becoming a second language for all cultures to be able t communicate with one another.
What I Can Share with Hosts
I will not hurt you or steal anything. I have traveled a lot and been in many homes through wwoofing and Air BnB. I like people, I appreciate who they are and I just want people to appreciate and love themselves so that their actions are void of motives.
Basically, I love you even if I have not met you!
