About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Connecting the dots...

ABOUT ME

Rrrmmm, maybe it would be better if you decided this one on your own.

PHILOSOPHY

"I want to stay as close to the edge as I can without going over. Out on the edge you see all kinds of things you can't see from the center."

Kurt Vonnegut

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I talk to people. I travel. I host Earthlings.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Being emerged in such a network is a pretty awesome experience. I am still somewhat new to it so I do not have a lot to show for.

Interests

Growing, learning, imposing a creative terror over my being from time to time. Classical guitar, reading, discovering music over and over again. Cooking. Taking long walks. Poetry. Conversation with strangers in coffee shops.

Oh, and I would really like to learn to ride a unicycle.
