CURRENT MISSION

Live, Love, and Revel On: this year that means a tour of the U.S.A., Croatia, and India. Perhaps wrestle a crocodile, play with a monkey, write a lot, take lots of pictures and video, and lets throw in ride a dragon for good measure

ABOUT ME

See. Smile. Revel on. I enjoy meeting people of all sorts, traveling, reading, writing, dancing, skipping, standing still, cats, dogs, falcons, cowboy boots, red pumps, and creating art of some form using whatever is at hand.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I'm new to couch surfing. I am open yet cautious to the idea.

Interests

I am interested in just about all ideas/subjects/cultures/trades/skills/philosophies and listening to how others interpret the world. My closest interests are my whimsies of the moment. The more I learn/listen/discuss the more my philosophy develops and evolves, which in turn influences my whimsies.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

* I've walked the Great Wall and marveled at the engineering. Walking (crawling) up and walking (sliding) down those walkways was fun and inspiring.

* A neighboring camper's older dachshund fell into a cold, fast-flowing river and proceeded to go into shock. Not able to swim in that current, it was drowning. A couple of young boy scouts jumped into the water and swam the dog back to shore, where they proceeded to perform cpr and resuscitated the dachshund. The weeping human companion of this dog had her tears of fear turned into tears of joy as her pup waddled toward her after gulping some air.

* Watching my first effigy burn.

Teach, Learn, Share

There is art in everything and I enjoy making "junk" or "trash" (mostly the non biodegradable things) into something pretty and/or useful. Perhaps you have something around your place that we could work on/with to create something wonderful?
