CURRENT MISSION

My mission??? I hope to learn another language. Is there more??

ABOUT ME

I am just a humble teacher, working my way around the world, meeting new people, experiencing new/ancient cultures and learning what I can to share with those I teach and care about. I try to live happily and responsibly. Wow, is that too heavy?

PHILOSOPHY

Keep your mind open. . . .Experience and observe. Don't believe the hype. Question authority! Life is a battle of propaganda. Be yourself! Keep it simple. Pursue your dreams.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I just started here in Beijing but I've hosted people with my girlfriend while living in Oslo using Hospitality Club. We can host people and show them around locally.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

A few CS folks have visited recently and I've met several Hospitality Club people that were also Couch Surfers.

Interests

Theater, film, all sorts of performance...cultural festivals, book readings, cafe life. I try to see what I can, Beijing has a tremendous variety of culture. International Film Festivals, art exhibits, of all sorts. Biking around the city is a breeze and awesome, even in the winter. Exploring all the backstreets is fascinating. Additionally, I play ultimate frisbee locally and travel to tournaments in Asia and Europe.
