CURRENT MISSION I'm living in SLC and frequently traveling to other places, to visit friends, family, and occasionally to present quantitative research on psychotherapy processes and outcomes. ABOUT ME I'm a good person, but my cat is pure evil. I live vicariously through him. I like to try to play unfamiliar musical instruments. PHILOSOPHY Like Christopher Hitchens, I live mostly for the love of irony, and gloating over the misfortunes of others. Actually, I am passionate about supporting people's happiness and I am committed to social justice. I am studying to be a scientist and a therapist.

Почему я на Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING I will come visit you! You will come visit me! I am a very gracious guest and a respectful and enthusiastic host and tour guide. COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE I've done quite a bit of couchsurfing hosting, although you can't tell by my profile. My ex wife and I hosted several dozen surfers here in Austin and in Amherst/Northampton. Unfortunately for me, she inherited the profile. So, I have to start afresh.
Музыка, кино и книги
Nonviolent Communication, The King and the Corpse, Malcolm Gladwell, John Updike, Nicholson Baker
Одно удивительное, что я сделал
A while ago, in the woods, I watched a turtle eat a very large mushroom, incredibly slowly. It probably took a half hour.
Учить, учиться, делиться
I can teach automotive repair/rebuild/maintenance. I can definitely teach music, and how to play the guitar and other instruments. I'm learning about counseling psychology. I can sort of teach yoga. I can tell you all about buddhist meditation technique. I want to learn how to do that really loud whistle some people can do.
Что я могу предложить хостам
Openness, camaraderie, cooking, music, and my joie de vivre.
Мои интересы
I write and play music, I like to eat and sleep and exercise, I like words (talking and joking and word games) and I can work on cars. If you have a really, really, really nice couch for me to stay on and you happen have car trouble, this could be mutually beneficial.
