Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Meaning is found cooking dinner with friends.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I met Micheal and Jen at dinner building a temple at Burningman, I came to stay and they sent us to Jay, who made us grilled cheese, and it was awesome, man!

Interests

Bicycles, what a great contraption, wonderful way to see any place. Buddhism - all that vibrant color coupled with all that stillness.

Music, Movies, and Books

Star Wars, Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, Beyond Good and Evil. Star Trek - the latest movie was awesome. Thomas Nagel - A View From Nowhere.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Placed a native American prayer stick on the top of Devil's Tower. Guilded a Buddhist temple during a full moon while a bear came to visit. Build temples at Burningman, five and counting.

Teach, Learn, Share

Chia seeds are food of the gods in the Mayan Culture. Marathon messengers soaked and ate chia seeds as a miracle food to sustain them from hunger.

What a great way to be nourished while travelling the world by bicycle.
