Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
To visit every country in the world, and to do it with a focus on quality, not just quantity. I will also write a book (not about travel), walk around the world, have lots of wonderful people in my life who make me a better man.
ABOUT ME
I'm a chilled out guy with a high energy kick when a party is called for. I love travel but only when I am meeting the locals and other cool travelers on my frequency.
PHILOSOPHY
I live to stay in the zone, to challenge myself and to become and continue to be the best man I can be.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
So far, I have just signed up and I wish to participate by sharing my experiences with others. I have been so fortunate to travel as much as I have and I have a deep sense of gratitude for everything in my life. I also realise that for many, traveling is more of a dream than a reality so for them they travel by meeting travelers and seeing the world through their eyes and ears.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
Only with known friends and from hearing the tales of others.

Music, Movies, and Books
Russian and American authors, non-fiction.
Movies are eclectic but a powerful performance or an insight into humanity are priceless to me.
Music: 1970s era civil rights funk and soul that's been digitally remastered. More specifically: Pulp Fusion - all albums. Otherwise anything that's good for it's genre.
