About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To search out life and live it

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Right now I'm traveling in Europe, going where the wind takes my fancy. So I'm looking for places to explore and kind people to let me sleep on their couch. Note: I do not have a sleeping bag.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've just started my couch surfing experiences! I surfed two couches in the last few days and it was lovely!

Interests

Eating yummy local dishes, seeing new things, learning about how people work, listening to what folks have to say, spreading a better impression of Americans, living simply, stretching my ideas of what is possible, looking at beautiful art...

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Today I saw snow under a palm tree!!

Teach, Learn, Share

THings I learned in L'arche, a community where people with and without developmental disabilities live together:

when the last thing you want to do is spend time with someone, the first thing you need to do is spend time with them

Conflict is not the end of relationship

You cannot take care of anyone else unless you take care of yourself

Achievement is not about how many degrees you have or how much prestige your job carries.

There is dignity in work.

Love is a decision.
