CURRENT MISSION

Going to Portland. OR in November 2016 and want to meet dancers, musicians, poets and fun people.

ABOUT ME

grew up in USA and Colombia. Upbeat, hi energy, friendly easy going guy, single, with grown children. Into dance, music, Zappa and vegan food.

PHILOSOPHY

a) to enjoy life and have fun b) to do something meaningful for a good cause, like anti-nukes or helping reduce the suffering that people and animals endure or helping children who have learning disabilities and their parents (current mission). I usually am very positive and can-do style. I dislike negative attitudes.

Music, Movies, and Books

lately, Devotchka and Tweaky Bambino. Good music, guitar, dancing, fresh foods, electric guitar, singing, writing poetry, making films, artsy anything, working out at gym, bikes, cats, wrestling hippos. A good spy novel works too.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Packed up and moved away from the USA after 43 good years there. I saw the Rennie Harris Pure Movement Dance Troupe. (Jaw Dropping.) I raised 2 fantastic children who are in their thirties and very accomplished. That's three things!

Teach, Learn, Share

I share my hands in giving great massages, I trained for a year in college and have practiced ever since. Enjoy cooking and fixing stuff, home projects. Have taught sales, music appreciation and dance.

What I Can Share with Hosts

A bed and my place. A guitar if you play. Tour you around my 11th century village.
