About Me

CURRENT MISSION

My mission is to spread love and goodness and peace throughout the world one person at a time.

ABOUT ME

Well, I am coupled with a lovely Japanese guy who you see in the pic with me. We have been living together for over 9 years, and we have a nice safe space large enough to share with other couch surfers. I am gay. I am an actor here in Tokyo. I have lived in Japan for over 15 years. I am a gentle Teddy Bear who gives GREAT HUGS! Also have good ears and a head between my shoulders(which friends often use for support or to shed a tear) filled with good advice and a big heart.

PHILOSOPHY

Everyday, I say that I have a choice - be happy, or not to be happy. Looking for the positive side of things, and seeing the good in the world. I try to put goodness in as I receive blessings I pass along the vibes and energy to everyone around me.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Well, I had a couch surfer come over and stay. She introduced me to the site. Then she invited me to a couchsurfing party! I met a few new people who all seemed quality folks. They were very friendly. Helpful. GENUINE GOOD PEOPLE!! We had a great time and I decided I was in need of joining this group.

Interests

Theatre, karaoke, socializing, figure skating, Olympics, watching sports, meeting new friends, cooking, giving/getting big bear hugs, travelling, sharing experiences and pics with people new to Japan or ones who are old timers here, bridge & card games, volunteering, mentoring, finding out about the best side of people.

Music, Movies, and Books

Liked the Da Vinci code recently. Couldn't put it down. Music to make me happy! Most movies, love stories.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Seen rainbows over Diamond Head in Honolulu, Smoky Mountains' mist of TN and NC, and sang the national anthems(in honor) of Gold Medalists at the ceremony at several Olympic Games.

Teach, Learn, Share

Teaching about gaijin life in Japan. All aspects of theatre arts. Bridge. Learning about stress control. Massage. Healings. I was born in Atlanta, so I learned to treat your guests like family, and your family like guests.
