about me, hmmmmm...

ok, a few things have changed since i last logged in. my partner and i have a 3yr old kid named, Sixten. he's old enough now for us to start considering inviting ppl to stay with us again. it would be so awesome if people with kids wanted to surf with us.

my brother married a kenyan woman and talking to her & listening to her stories made me realize how little i know. it's humbling.

after a 6 yr hiatus i'm back teaching english and i can't remember why i ever stopped.

i don't party as much as i used to but i still know what's what in this town, so you're set on a good time based on my recommendations. my kid thinks i'm hilarious and you will, too.

we value education, political, scientific, & ecological awareness & literacy in our household but we don't take ourselves too seriously.

this is an atheistic home, make of that what you will.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

if hotels didn't exist and travelers only surfed each others couches there would be no war, no worldwide conflicts. i know that it sounds naïve but it's a pleasant theory.
