CURRENT MISSION To further my travels and learn as much as I can about other Peoples and Cultures ABOUT ME Single, open minded guy (I am gay if that matters) I own a restaurant and work a lot. Very laid back. I live in northern Gloucester, Virginia, in a so called "tiny home" I share the property with a few other guys, each of us in our own tiny homes basically. Great place if you want to just unwind and enjoy nature. Not so good if you want city amenities. I love to travel and hope to use couchsurfing and helpx-ing to see as much of the world and meet as many people as I can. . We have a flock of chickens (for eggs) and some ducks, a goose and a turkey., also a large deck for relaxing and watching the water. We do have high speed internet. PHILOSOPHY Live your dreams, don't dream your life. I'd rather die while I'm living than live while I am dead.

My Interests
Most anything maritime will get me going. Love talking about boats, being on boats, tinkering with boats, wakeboarding (not that good, but love it, this applies to snowboarding too) love almost any kind of music. Owning a restaurant means I love to try out new recipes. A bit of a motorhead too, enjoy cool cars and bikes.
