CURRENT MISSION

Living a complete, well-balanced lifestyle.

ABOUT ME

Ever the searcher, usually mental landscapes as well as physical. Morphing slowly into more of a pragmatist with plans to establish within a community.

PHILOSOPHY

Love thy neighbor. A lot of my energy is devoted to improving communication with emphasis on clarity, anti-inflammatory language, and sincerity. I intend for my relation to others to reflect that I'm a peacemaker of the highest ambition.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Now living in Little Rock, AR. Not in an extended living situation yet, but couchsurfing inquires are welcome. If nothing else I'm open to meeting new folks and introducing them to the city.

Interests

- Spend a lot of free time reading and writing.
- Find philosophy and psychology intriguing.
- Too drawn to politics for my own good.
- Enticed by travel or anything that represents newness or fullness of life.
- Easily charmed by food that is healthy.
- Gardening and cooking.
- Dancing when the mood strikes.
- Sharing personal approaches to life. I like to know what has and hasn't worked for people.
