CURRENT MISSION

life is short -why not enrich it with new world friends

ABOUT ME

Born in the midwest, raised in the south in a home where we always had international visitors. I've been fortunate to have traveled through 31 different countries. Just relocated from country living off the land in southwestern Wisconsin back to the suburbs of Little Rock, Arkansas.

PHILOSOPHY

We should live lightly off the earth and do whatever possible to make the world a better place to live and leave this world better than we found it.

Warum ich bei Couchsurfing bin

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I am a walking CS "PR" ( public relations) telling everybody I meet about the virtues of a terrific organization called Couch surfing which makes the world a little smaller and a lot better through sharing one's home and life.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

My very first while visiting my college aged son in Cleveland...so much better to be in a home than a sterile hotel room!
