CURRENT MISSION

Breathing hope into the nostrils of mankind through a fearless exchange of our shared time and energy!

ABOUT ME

Artist, Enthusiast, Human Experiment, Student of Life =)

I'm a seeker (like us all) who tries to nurture my bond with nature, music, love, people, art, food, animals, science, medicine, and philosophy with every chance I get.

I like to dabble in stimulation (mental, emotional, physical and spiritual) and I hope to inspire others to make the best of their existence on this earth while it lasts.

PHILOSOPHY

LOVE, and to the best of your ability try not to be an asshole. Challenge the status quo. Revolt against the machine of greed.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

By spreading good cheer!!!... I host whenever I am able & I am eager to continue to surf, as every time I do I learn a little bit more about life through YOU.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Currently {sometimes} hosting on San Juan Island in the enchanting Puget Sound of the Pacific NorthWest of the States. My island home is nothing short of magical and I hope to share it as much as possible when we are not hosting kayak guides. I host formally or informally when I can (when I am staying in one place for while) and have surfed in South America as well as North America. Please help fuel the momentum of my mission by surfing with me OR by giving me a chance to visit someone somewhere abroad (you) who also seeks to foster growth in this global community.

兴趣

Soooo many! But my latest and greatest is in sewing and fashion design. I have my own brand of artwear that I am developing and a long-term goal to one day open & operate a hostel or gathering place of my own that would serve as an art gallery/venue/bar/restaurant/lodging. I appreciate your opinions and suggestions as to what makes a great hostel and how you might be able to contribute any ideas...?

教，学，和分享

TEACH... i want to TEACH PEOPLE TO CARE about the earth they are inhabiting and (even subtle) ways that they can protect it, through sharing artistic perspectives and creative endeavors with anyone interested in the ultimate goal of learning more about what it is like to be truly and relentlessly HuMaN.

LEARN... i want to LEARN how to become more informed as a human being, how to take individual responsibility for my actions and how i can best serve our Mother Earth and my fellow man/woman.

SHARE... i want to SHARE my glow and my perspective with anyone willing to join me in taking action, setting the example, motivating others, & celebrating the skin we inhabit.

我可以与沙发主分享些什么

Do you play music??? I tinker on ukulele, guitar, bass, keys, drums, and virtually anything else I can get my hands on that can create sound. A jam session is almost always something I can get excited about.

Do you like to cook??? I enjoy cooking and would love to collaborate on meals!

Always good for some heartfelt dialog and discussion. I am up for the challenge of doing everything I can to prove through my actions that many Americans are loving and accepting people who reject hate and bigotry, and who celebrate diversity and peace.
