CURRENT MISSION

To meet people from different parts of the world and share experiences and cultures.

ABOUT ME

I was born in NY, lived in California, Hawaii and now Dallas, TX. I have 3 children, 21, 24 & 38 and 2 step-children, 25 & 28. I am married to a wonderful woman who is a high school teacher and plays the flute. I stop to smell the roses. We love to travel and meet new people.

PHILOSOPHY

This moment is all we have. The past is done and the future is unknown. Embrace life and the people you love to the fullest and appreciate the wonder that is all around us.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

We have not couchsurfed much. My wife and I recently stayed with a wonderful woman in Lafayette, LA and had a woman and her daughter from New Zealand stay with us also. Our last couchsurfer was a classical guitarist in town for a competition and we immediately embraced him into the family. He played for my mother-in-law's 80th birthday party!
