CURRENT MISSION Community service and personal growth through bridging cultural differences. Two paths intersecting, from different directions, and headed in different directions, can be both powerful and precarious. I choose to live at the crossroads. ABOUT ME INFJ, also known as Counselor Idealist, or Mystic. Google it. PHILOSOPHY I live my life a) to escape suffering through clarity of vision, and b) to share any of my successes and wisdom in those departments with other beings.

Perché sono su Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING We shall see! I have a couch (or two or three) to offer, and we (my family and I) are authentic people with open minds and hearts. COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE Very few so far - just registered. But I have hosted for houseguests from around the world - Nigeria, Britain, Japan, Chile...but only one set of guests via couchsurfing, and I've never been a guest. I don't travel much, with a low income and three children to care for and educate. But I hope for that to change.
Musica, film e libri
All music (especially "World" music) EXCEPT some electronica, rap, or modern R&B...I love sci-fi, romance, and witty comedy movies...I read mostly non-fiction and memoirs, but I occasionally can get into a fantasy adventure novel or a Stephen King thriller.
Una cosa straordinaria che ho fatto
On a beach near my house, I met a baby Pacific Harbor Seal, waiting for his mother to return from the hunt. I stayed and watched him and talked to him for a while, saw the innocence and life in his eyes, and was deeply moved. It was a moment no camera could have captured.
Insegna, Impara, Condividi
I am happy to share my skills and knowlege, in all areas (see "occupation" above)! I especially enjoy helping others to clear their minds of clutter, to simplify their internal dialog. I am working to learn more Spanish, as well as start learning Hindi and Marathi. Currently researching India: history, culture, language, geography, art/architecture, etc. Plans to travel there in December!
