About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To visit Costa Rica for a few weeks a year until retiring there in five years.

ABOUT ME

I'm a talker. I can visit with anyone and learn everything about them. I like to make friends all over the globe and spend time with them at their homes. I would rather stay at a resort than camp. I don't like sleeping on the ground anymore. I don't have any concrete plans and my family is very flexiable. They don't care what we do as long as we have fun. They call me the Big Giant Head because I'm always in charge. My three requirements for happiness are warmth, food and sleep. Take any one of those away and I'm crabby.

PHILOSOPHY

Give thanks for each day, respect others and teach them how to treat you well.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I have hosted people I did not know in the past. I belong to a tribe so I have 16,000 relatives to care for when needed.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I was a board member for the Indigenous Environmental Network. That gave me the opportunity to visit many Indian reservations across the U.S. Sometimes we stayed in hotels, with other environmental organizations in their offices, or we camped.
