CURRENT MISSION

I deeply enjoy traveling when I am able to. However, while I am home hopefully I'll be able to offer other couch surfers an exciting and interesting view of St. Louis.

ABOUT ME

For a living I am a server in an upscale restaurant. The job is fantastic as it allows me plenty of free time, and affords me the extra income to be able to travel. I am also an artist (writer, poet, photographer) and a tarot reader as well.(hosts and surfers get a free tarot reading, if they are into that sort of thing). In my free time I like to read, meditate, jog, and drink good wine and beer (reds and IPAs are my favorite). If I have the chance I love the opportunity to share a nice meal with any surfer/host I am spending time with, be it at a nice restaurant or a home cooked meal.

PHILOSOPHY

Too complex to explain in a few lines. But I adhere to the Buddhist tenet that everything in this seemingly separate reality is ultimately One.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

While traveling or hosting I like to offer good conversation, share stories, and teach about my city while learning about others.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Having couch surfed dozens of times, I enjoy every step of the process. It's always very exciting walking into a new situation where the opportunity for new friendships await.

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

I once saw a seventy-two year old grandmother of six eat two Big Macs and a super-sized fry in one sitting and live to tell the tale. It was simply incredible.
