CURRENT MISSION

Same as always.. add two significant people/great friends to my life each year... '09's looking above par:)

ABOUT ME

Always on the go... I try not to plan more than 24 hours in advance...I never turn down a chance for new experiences and/or good times (as long as it's not reckless).

I like casual conversation and meeting people where ever I'm at... because hypothetically who knows... maybe one day you're at a Mariners game and you buy the guy sitting next to a beer... then 10 months later his company relocates him from Denver to Seattle and he becomes one of your best friends... it could happen;)

PHILOSOPHY

I follow Ghandi on this one.... "be the change you want to see in the world"

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

No hosting for me yet. But definitely up to tour the city with you for a day and help you out with some Seattle trivia... Did you know that Seattle was the first city in the United States to play a Beattle's song on the radio?

Interests

For fun....Anything active.. snowboarding, running, tennis, motorcycles, some mellow things too... cooking, wine-tasting, theatre, indy/foreign films and hanging w/ my dog Sam.

For public service...Volunteering... The idea of people going hungry when so much food is wasted is discomforting... so I spend time at the local food bank... and you can usually find me dishing out plates of food at free lunch programs.

For Education... back to school soon. Finishing up my apps now so hopefully will be working toward a Joint MA/JD in '10.

Music, Movies, and Books

Book... Autobiographies mainly. Especially from two people who experienced life together... ie... patty boyd/eric clapton. It's always interesting to see how two people share the same experiences together but walk away with such different perspectives/stories of their shared time.

Teach, Learn, Share

I want to learn to brew my own beer. Know how? Let's chat:)
