CURRENT MISSION

To meet interesting travelers of the world, to broaden my knowledge, to understand.

ABOUT ME

I am a family man, but my kids are mostly grown, so I don't mind a good time on my own, as well.

PHILOSOPHY

I'm of a scientific mind when it comes to the big questions. Evidence guides my thinking.

Pourquoi je suis sur Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have hosted at least three times now. I have surfed in LA, San Diego, Missoula, Mt., and in Rochester, NY, each time with great success.

Centres d'intérêt

Music, especially old stuff. No... I mean old stuff, not what you're thinking. I also like to write, enjoy a good beer and travel.

Morceaux de musique, films et livres

Not merely country music, but the music of the country, and the older, the better. Honky-tonk stuff including Buck Owens, Johnny Cash, Dwight Yoakam, Hank Williams and old-time music from way back.

Une aventure extraordinaire que j'ai vécue

Climbing the Stairway to Heaven in Hawaii with my son, Mikey. Hiking to the bottom of the Grand Canyon with my other son, Kyle, and with my daughter Jessie.

Enseignez, apprenez, partagez

I can teach people how to play old country songs on the guitar.

Ce que j'aimerais partager avec mes hôtes

Arizona history and geography, the good restaurants and taverns, and this unlimited supply of sunshine.
