Présentation
À propos de moi
CURRENT MISSION
My mission is to love everyone, do good, and live boldly and intentionally.
ABOUT ME
I'm a single guy whose two sons are grown and out on their own. I love to travel both in the US and in Europe. I backpack and canoe around the US and love to make trips to Europe to experience new cultures, foods, and to visit art museums. I've been to Paris 4 times; London twice, Florence and Rome three times; Madrid once, Barcelona once, and had my first trip to Guatemala in Jan. 2010 and will be returning there this winter.
PHILOSOPHY
I am here to love everyone I can, to do as much good on this earth as I can while I am here, and to choose to live my life rather than just let my life happen.
Pourquoi je suis sur Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
My friend Erica suggested I join because she knows I love to travel, and in the US I often stay with friends.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I have friends around the country who let me stay with them, and several of them have stayed at my house for short trips as well. In July 2008 I spent a week with friends in Colorado and a week with a friend in Ohio. In March 2008, I had three friends stay with me, and in May 2008 I had relatives of a friend stay in my spare room. In November 2008, I hosted Mauro, a native Brazilian, who was biking from Iowa City, Iowa, USA, to Santa Cruz, Brazil. It was a great experience. In March 2009 I hosted four Cottey alums, and In May 2009, hosted friends and family of a student for commencement. I had seven stay with me in late March '10. Currently have four coming to stay in April 11 and three in May 11.

Enseignez, apprenez, partagez
I'm a pretty good writer and photographer. I've won a couple of awards for design, writing, and promotional work. Not sure I'd consider myself an expert in any of them though.
I'd like to become fluent in French. I had it in college and have forgotten most of it. I study hard before I travel overseas and can make do with some "tourist" French, but wish I could keep practicing year round and become more proficient.
