PHILOSOPHY

"If you insist on leaving your fate to the gods, then the gods will repay your weakness by having a grin or two at your expense. Should you fail to pilot your own ship, don't be surprised at what inappropriate port you will find yourself docked." Tom Robbins - Jitterbug Perfume

The time you enjoy wasting isn't wasted time.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

When surfing: I'll clean and donate money when I can. I'd rather trade for goods like making you a hat, buying beer, or cooking dinner.

I'd love to help show you around (wherever I am living at the time!) :)
