About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Pay back time, as a young traveler in Europe the doors where always open.

ABOUT ME

I am fairly flexiable in most every thing I do, but consider, respect and honesty the key to my enjoyment of life. I like out door things, golf, beach, and the mountains. Food and wine are a big deal for me, since I live in wine country. I have chosen to stay single, however have had three close calls, but all and all traveling has been a good mate.

PHILOSOPHY

Do no harm, and help, if you can

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I just got started, but used the site, one day before I headed to Bogota on a whim.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

My sister turned me on to the site, a day before I headed down to Colombia, but it worked out, a guy emailed me back from Bogota and ended getting together with a bunch of surfers at a bar there, pretty cool.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

on a trip in Austrailia, a guy woke me early before light, and took me to the lake's edge while camping in the bush, and low and behold there was a herd of kangaroo watering themselves, after watching them a bit, he threw a rock on to the surface of the lake, and they all scattered like popcorn in a popper, very cool, but no camera.

Teach, Learn, Share

I would like to know more about using my computers, and this would add to the party, also helping people understand, one does not need all they think they do.,LESS IS BETTER!
