About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Wander with a shovel in hand, ready to dig.

ABOUT ME

Creation is the key: writing, growing, painting, drawing... any ol' thing really. Shovels and pens are very necessary.

My latest Couchsurf-a-thon was a Quest across New England. You can read about it here: http://landquestjp.wordpress.com/2011/05/02/day-one/

It was a Quest for land, for life, for food sovereignty, for all things good.

But, really, I feel as if such things as one's "all about" should be discussed in person - on a couch, maybe, or in a bar, or at a park - any place would do just fine.

That all said, I like to think I'm an alright kind of guy.

PHILOSOPHY

I've much respect for balance and the cyclical tendency of things.

You can paint whatever deity you wish on this respect.

(I'd prefer some sort of animal/woman celestial music-based god, I suppose.)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I've surfed and dug every moment of it - CS folk are great people, and have helped me to rekindle my belief in the fellow man.

As far as hosting - well, my wife hosted quite a bit before I rolled into town... so, I can ride her wave of success?

I would have loved to host had I not been a wanderlusty vagabond for the past few years. Once I'm back in London, you're welcome to it.
