Why I'm on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING I am all inclusive and love for others to share their stories, however, do not like those who take over the room when it's inappropriate to do so. COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE I surfed once in Richmond, Virginia, and it was a great experience. Now I plan to stay with someone in Idaho this coming August, and I will do MORE surfing soon!
Music, Movies, and Books
Steve Earle, Emmylou Harris, Zep, Jimi, World Music including Habib Koite, Fela and Femi Kuta, Salif Keita, The Band, Michael Franti, Reckless Kelly, 'Stones, - most of it. Not into jazz too much. Favorite movies = American Beauty and Harold and Maude, also Man on Fire (Denzel).
