CURRENT MISSION

To give back to Couchsurfing as much hospitality as we received during our travels.

ABOUT ME

I travel a lot for work, and I always try to get to know the *real* place I'm visiting by meeting the actual people who live there. Couchsurfing enables that connection. I love to learn new things and meet new people.

PHILOSOPHY

You get 80 years on this rock (if you're lucky); make 'em count.

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I've been surfer, then host, now surfer again. CS is a great community.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

My son and I couchsurfed through all 50 states from 9/2009 to 5/2010. Back in my youth, I hitchhiked around New England and Europe, relying on friends, generous strangers, empty barns, and youth hostels for places to sleep. For the past seven years we're been CS hosts.
