CURRENT MISSION Live life to the MAX - Create improvements whenever possible ABOUT ME I'm an accomplished generalist. Have done a lot of different things over the years. Can do some things very well, and many things fairly well. Try, not always successfully, to do the right thing. Fit into many circumstances/circles, but often remain just-outside, to preserve my independence and freedom. I have a very wide variety of interests and that enhances my ability to plug in to many situations gracefully. PHILOSOPHY Life is a journey. Enjoy every minute of it. There can be a positive view, approach, and enjoyment of even the most mundane of life's many requirements. Boredom is a curse I have been spared....

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING I have hosted many, but just recently started surfing myself. Willing to share my space with others who embrace this spirit as well. PLEASE, NO LAST MINUTE COUCHSURFING REQUESTS. Thanks! COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE 20+ surfers have passed through here now. I have just started surfing myself. My experience with this has been all positive.
Música, películas y libros
All sorts.
