Resumen
Sobre mí
CURRENT MISSION
To enjoy life. To never stop learning and teaching. To leave my mark in this world simply through real connections with people.
ABOUT ME
We enjoy what we do for a living, especially when we work on older homes because they have a story to tell. The older the house is, the more interesting we find it.
PHILOSOPHY
I don't want to get too heavy here, so I'll just say that family and close friends are extremely important, but it's important to go beyond that EVERY day. Volunteering for a charity is great, but are you connecting in a personal way with the people around you? Smile at a person passing you on the street, hold a door for the next person (yes, even women should do this), make eye contact with and talk to a homeless person. Say something nice to each person you deal with throughout the day (even those you don't particularly like). These are the things that will lift your spirits while making the world a better place.
Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
New to this, but I plan to begin hosting as soon as I get home. I live in a really cool area and I think that my family could offer a good experience.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
First experience as a guest in Washington State. I have been a guest on two couches in the Seattle area and my hosts have been so wonderful that I never want to travel any other way! I will definitely become a host when I return home!
Intereses
We like to hang out with small groups of friends... Good conversation, a bottle of wine and preparing a meal with our friends is a terrific way to spend an evening.
We enjoy camping in the country or hanging out in cities, just taking in the world around us. Every place and every day has new things to offer if we are open to it.

Música, películas y libros
Haven't made time to read much more than a newspaper lately.
I do love music, the type depends on my mood. Could be anything from rock to country to R&B and everything in between. Dave is mostly into rock.
We enjoy movies... For me, mostly romantic comedies and action movies, favorites would include Princess Bride and the Lethal Weapon series. Also, Willie Wonka with Gene Wilder. Dave prefers action movies, but usually enjoys whatever I pick out.
Algo increíble que he hecho
Every day, the world appears more amazing to me. I am thankful for every day that I am given.
Enseña, aprende, comparte
It is better to be disliked for who you are than to be loved for who you are not.
Qué puedo ofrecer a los anfitriones
I am a pretty good home cook and I enjoy preparing a meal to share with new friends.
Dave and I also enjoy sharing stories, outdoor adventures and even our home repair knowledge and skills.
