Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
I intend to help visitors find an interesting and fun loving way of being.
ABOUT ME
I am a very High Energy Proud Out Gay Grandfather, who is busy doing everything he wishes and Blessed to be. As an Actor, my children, who are over 40 years young and Grandchildren are proud of seeing me on TV shows, Films and Commercials.
I love Life and all the wonderful opportunities to learn about myself in it. Hopefully your Visit to my home or my visit to yours will bring me even more awareness, enjoyment in living and opportunity to learn and grow.
I hold a Shamanic Style, Healing Circle two times a month in Toronto.
PHILOSOPHY
I only allow those around me who support me with their positive being. I have one credo and that is to support myself and others by not knowingly hurting anyone in the process of being. I am non-judgmental and try to not be negative about how the world allows me to be in it. Rather learn the daily lessons it brings to me.
As a Gay Activist I have learned how very much more we are all alike than different, than some would like us to think. Our sexual practices do not make who we are, our heart and actions do.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I am offering my place to share the Joy I have to offer. I wish to find out about what it is you can bring to that experience.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
No longer a C S Virgin!
My first hosting experience brought me great interest in wanting to continue.
My second experience brought great caution about how I invite others and caused me to create a "VISITOR HOUSE RULES", document.
I have been very dissappointed in my efforts to find a place through Couchsurfing, when travelling.
I wonder if people see my age and fear it? When hired in Film, TV and Commercials am hired as a 50-65 year young man. I am very physically active and ride a Bicycle, no Car, to get around Toronto.
I am so pleased to offer my space to those who come here. I have met amazing, wonderful people. Their words, in support of me show that.
Interests
I am deeply involved with creative people as they stimulate my existence. Photography, poetry, Story telling through acting all thrill me daily!! Traveling to unknown cultures as I love being in a new place where the culture informs me.
My Energy Healing/Life Coaching and Acting and Teaching of these, brings both great Blessings and responsibilities.

Music, Movies, and Books
I read mostly books on personal or cultural experiences and teachings of Healing. Lately nost of my Time is devoted to First Nations People, Canada, and Indeginous People United States, Healing practices.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I find every day brings me many lessons of how many ways I can be, whether being in familiar or unknown places.
Teach, Learn, Share
I know from my Spiritual Healing, Energy work, that I have something others may need, but they certainly have wonders to teach me. I have been many things in this lifetime, Dancer/Actor/Choreographer, Commercial Interior Designer for 40 years, Published Photographer, Art Director in Film and television, Haute Couture Fashion Designer/manufacturer, and a few other things. Was a husband (once) 23 years, Father/Grandfather now. Male Partner for over 22 years. All provide me with great lessons on being.
