Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
Howl to the dawn. And inspire imagination in people to discover creativity and follow our passions.
ABOUT ME
I'm a simple, humble individual. Friendly and knowledgeable about humans and existence. I can be both light-hearted and serious, lively or mellow depending on the ambiance. I am known for random, spontaneous laughter, seemingly without reason (for no reason is the best reason). Some people have called me a renaissance man for my dabblings in a spectrum of artistic expressions.
Also, I should add that my given name is Patric. This has apparently been a source of confusion for some of our fellow couchsurfers, so it should be known that Valdon Ross is my artist persona.
PHILOSOPHY
Existence exists... do something to make it better -- i.e. give love.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
In the past, I've hosted a lot. But with my new roommate/housing situation, I can't really provide that -- which is a huge bummer.
So, I'm around to hang out and so forth.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
Travelers inspire me. I meet so many beautiful, intriguing people this way. Spontaneous adventures rock!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I volunteer from time to time at a wolf sanctuary in southern Colorado. In my spare time I sometimes study wolf ecology and behavior. The more I learn of wolves and the more I learn of myself, I come to realize I am partially wolf.
Teach, Learn, Share
I am student of every moment of life, my aim is to learn how to live strong and die well, and help others along the way. I am most interested in the creative process (broadly defined to mean "how you put your talents into action) and self-expression.
What I Can Share with Hosts
Enthusiasm and genuine interest in their journey, passions, and callings in life. A heartfelt connection, with the potential to open the way towards more self-expression and self-appreciation for your various quirks, talents, and gifts. Various artistic things, stories, juggling, laughter.
