ABOUT ME

Homilist, Pneumanaut, and occasional Haiku Poet

PHILOSOPHY

Everything is spiritual. If anything matters, then everything matters. In the end, wish to be more open than closed, more willing than afraid, more generous than greedy, more sustainable than wasteful, more faithful, more hopeful, and more loving. Most of all, I would like to think that I can leave this world better than when I found it.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Looking to meet new people and expanding our cultural and geographical boundaries through shared experience and genuine hospitality.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

We had one surfing experience in Costa Rica with our family. It was a wonderful introduction to the country with incredible hospitality.

We have not officially hosted anyone. However, we have opened up our home on a number of occasions for those traveling to the area for a couple of days and had one guest stay with us for a couple of months.

兴趣

When I don't have my nose in a book, I enjoy spending time with my family and friends, enjoying a good beer, cup of coffee or tea, taking walks/hikes, movies, writing haiku poetry, and training Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu.
