ABOUT ME

Grew up in AZ. (Mesa- Tempe), lived in Portland, OR., Bend, OR., Oahu, HI. West Glacier, MT., Nampa, ID. Beaver Creek, CO. Have been through and seen CA., WA., UT., N.ID., AZ. And in the east: N.Y (upstate and city) MA. D.C., and now FL. Restless, rambler, gypsy, vegabond, traveler, "when are you going to settle down?" are a few words to desribe me. Artist, dreamer, funnyman, are a few more. Retirement is for now, career is for later. Free spirit, no politcal side but lean left, no religious ties but have faith, not married...not too interested, no kids...dont want any, I prefer beach to mountains or dessert, yearning to see the world. Blue collar guy, cook, fix my own car, carpenter, painter, handy man...not makin any serious plans till 2013 ;)

PHILOSOPHY

Retire now work later.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Currently I move around in 6 month stints, learn different places, different people. Ride shares and when I have a couch its for visitors.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

My first and only use of couchsurfing was in Portland, OR. and it wasn't even a couch. I was invited to last minute to a clothing optional suana in S.E. Portland. It was hot and sweaty and cool.

Teach, Learn, Share

I feel as most of us I'm sure do, that I've got some pretty unique thoughts and views about life, god, love, relationships, health. Will learn from those I choose to learn something from. Hard to say what things I'd like to learn with out actually getting into them to start.
