About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To travel, to meet, and to have many good conversations...

ABOUT ME

Probably, the most relevant thing is that I believe in honest exchange -- of ideas, things, whatever. I have never been good at summing myself up as a personality, but as a guest, I am clean and conscientious. As a host, I think I am the same. If anything else is important to you, feel free to ask, and I will tell you in more detail than you probably want to hear :)

PHILOSOPHY

Oh dear. I am still working on this one. I don't believe in being mean to people. I believe in trying to understand where people come from, in their own beliefs, actions, whatever, but I don't think anyone can be completely explained, and that's wonderful. I believe in being a work in progress.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I solemnly promise to spread the word. I've surfed, I've hosted, I've hung out.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have hosted a bit in the U.S. and am in love with the CS community. I have hosted in Canada but am back int he U.S. now. Basically, I love the idea of CS and intend to per sue and perpetuate it.

Interests

I like to walk outside with friends, explore new towns, eat good food, give things away, indulge my NPR habit ... and many other things I try to make room for in my life.
