Why I'm on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE Couchsurfing has been such a blessing and education to me. Learning and sharing with kind folks all over has been sublime! Thank you, my dear friends.
Music, Movies, and Books
Well, being a man (sorry 'bout that), I sometimes enjoy movies with an action theme but not over the top "Shoot up, Blow up the world stuff. I'm unashamed of enjoying Downton Abbey as well as several other British titles. My musical tastes make for a playlist guaranteed to make single genre listeners unhappy, lots of old school rock, reggae, Motown, even some classical stuff and tons of Anglican Hymns! I enjoy reading a variety of books, biography to non fiction history, novels to science fiction. I'm kinda funny about music, it seems that if I have actual "work" to do around the house (or elsewhere) music is a tremendous help to me. BUT when I'm not busy silence is truly golden to me. I must confess to not having owned a television for twenty five years or so, yes, I'm strange!
One Amazing Thing I've Done
Survived raising kids!
Teach, Learn, Share
I can offer hosts respect, consideration and cooperative conversation on a wide range of topics (one of the benefits of being superannuated!) My passion is learning, people, places, words and ways of life! My background is in construction and I'm pretty handy with a wide range of tools and techniques. I enjoy cooking and helping out in the kitchen or house.
What I Can Share With Hosts
Laughter Kindness Peace
My Interests
Pretty much everything, everywhere interests me, roads, houses, languages, landscapes, sounds, people and of course, peace! I work in the construction industry which means 12 hour days, six or seven days a week for months at a time so when I'm able, I like to travel and be free of time constraints.
