About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Make a difference. Have fun. Life's too short.

ABOUT ME

Love hearing peoples stories. I'm easy to talk to, open and honest. Am a do-er -- pretty active, though I'm new in Mexico (now, after 5.5 years in Colombia), and my town, so haven't done my usual stuff lately ( camp, hike, ski, scuba...)

PHILOSOPHY

Golden Rule + "Sing like no one's listening, love like you've never been hurt, dance like nobody's watching, and live like its heaven on earth.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Bungee jumping off a 165' bridge face first

Cross country skiing in Yosemite National Park ---3000' granite walls and snow covered valley both reflecting the full moon. Awesome!

Mt. Rushmore- nuff said

Elephant riding in Changmai, camel riding painting in Dubai.

Night dive on RMS Rhone, a shipwreck at 80+'
