ABOUT ME

I'm still on a bit of a traveling and couchsurfing hosting hiatus at the moment. I have 2 young children and a new house needing lots of repairs. Eventually though I would like to actively host couch surfers again and maybe travel a bit myself.

PHILOSOPHY

Have direction and the details will work themselves out.

Music, Movies, and Books

Most of my time I spend with my family, or working for money, or fixing my house. I make frequent visits to the NY times, Guardian, and Bangkok Post websites. Don't read novels or non-fiction as much as I'de like. Don't have a TV, and rent a movie every couple weeks.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Visit me and we can have a travel story contest. Still the most amazing thing I see every day are my kids.

Teach, Learn, Share

Sneaking in the back door is almost always easier than trying to break down the front door.
