50-something life-long Texan, closet/honorary millennial, visionary and pragmatic philosopher. Interested in the reboot and rebirth of collective fractal holographic universe. Its here, and always has been, and I am ready to be part of the welcoming committee to bring us back home again.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Serendipitous meetings while travelling yield the most interesting stories and sometimes the deepest connections, and I generally like the hospitality of another's home more than a hotel. I'm keen for this to become more common, and look forward to hosting folks myself.
