CURRENT MISSION

To be a note in a chord.

ABOUT ME

Scott: husband, father, friend. We'll have fun together.

Kharissa: keeps it simple, loves, eats, and nurtures.

PHILOSOPHY

We think this question is more suitable for conversation than a profile text box, but please do ask. In short, LOVE!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

We enjoy hosting people coming to Toledo with a purpose. Don't ask to crash here for a night on your way to somewhere better: not interested in being a free b&b.

Community, creativity, growing, reading, writing, music, learning, nature, pondering the supernatural, the absurd, and You!

• writing

Music, Movies, and Books

I noticed the list was growing too much. So, here's a few: Tree Of Life, LOST, Razor's Edge, Planet Earth/Blue Planet, and Into The Wild.

music: Leonard Cohen, Sufjan Stevens, David Bazan, mewithoutYou, Ryan Adams/Whiskeytown, Tom Waits, Iron And Wine, Bob Dylan, and too many others.

BOOKS/AUTHORS: all sorts of poetry, spiritual texts, old letters and primary documents, books on how to turn your yard into a garden, Wendell Berry-ish books.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Ask me when we meet.

Teach, Learn, Share

We can learn a lot, but we would like to learn about sailing, and anything else. If it is interesting enough to merit your attention, then I would love to learn it.

We can teach a tiny bit about parenthood, urban gardening, horticulture, fishing, banjo, fermenting, etc.

What I Can Share with Hosts

A couch. Camping space. Fire pit. Good company. Maybe some food.
