Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
“Our battered suitcases were piled on the sidewalk again; we had longer ways to go. But no matter, the road is life.” – Jack Kerouac
ABOUT ME
I live in Exeter, NH, have done a little bit of couch surfing myself, and would love to host you and learn about your adventures. Please give me at least a day in advance for when you would need the couch. I love hearing about adventures and enjoy a good story-teller. I have a couch available that can be made into a futon big enough for two people. :)
PHILOSOPHY
âOnly by its own roots does a tree stand tall and only by its own light does the sun shine brightly and bring life to our world. So it is with you â only when youâre trusting, loving and rooted in your true Self will the life that is your highest potential begin to manifest. Only when you are walking on the path of your highest potential will you ever be able to shine brightly and bring light to the darkness in others.â

Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
This past February I went hitchhiking across country from VT to CA and couch surfed some along the way. The hosts I had were wonderful. They're kindness was something I will never forget. Id like to make my home your home for a night and give you the same great couch-surfing experience that I had!
