Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
To continue to grow, learn, adapt within the world as I perceive it.
ABOUT ME
I'm a bicycling and walking advocate / activist in Baton Rouge who has not owned an automobile for 20+ years. I'm a transportation bicyclist and I'm pleased to be able to host those who are on bicycle tour. I'll be happy to lead you on a ride around town for a look-see if you have the time and inclination.
I'm an omnivore, current smoker of cigarettes (no cigarette smoking indoors, please), am NOT a religious person and would appreciate it if evangelists would stay elsewhere if they can't stay off the subject of my immortal soul. Short stays welcome (3 days or less barring emergencies), internet access on hand (wireless just installed), and a room of your own unless you're traveling with friend(s) then we have to spread out a bit. Come on down!
PHILOSOPHY
Live and let live in a loving, cooperative environment.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
None so far. I'll change this as things change over time.
Interests
Bicycling is my life. It's not as bad as it may sound. I love riding and it serves me for what I do in town. I can also save a whole lotta money not buying gasoline.
Cyber-punk and post-cyber-punk fiction is a favorite. I am smitten with the Maya culture, ancient and modern. Photography gets my attention.
I love riding around on my bike. Did I mention that?
