CURRENT MISSION

Hmmm that's a tough nut...let me think a bit....

ABOUT ME

My name is Michael. I was born in Memphis and grew up in the States near Seattle. I've lived in Germany since I'm 12. The last years have been pretty interesting. I've worked in Saudi Arabia, and parts of Germany. I am happily married - my wife isn't really a couchsurfer - but more the hotel beach type of person - but if you are looking for a couch and we can host we will.

PHILOSOPHY

You reap what you sow.....or maybe Neil Young/ Mr Cobain: "Its better to burn out than fade away".

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing
