kinda sum things up kinda nicely.

PHILOSOPHY

Generally I believe that when one follows the correct path life with unfold with the beauty and mystery of a thousand petaled lotus blossom.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I sometimes have a couch that can be surfed...
I was a couch surfer for 20 or so years following the Grateful Dead around...now I surf a little...
Update March 2018...since I closed my retail store, I am now back to surfing more than staying put...I love to travel...meet interesting folks and collect treasures, both tangible and the intangible treasure of memories.
