I'm a 54-year-old licensed massage therapist. I live in Louisville, Kentucky, which is a really nice city. Nicer than I thought it would be when I moved here 3 years ago.

I am naturally curious, and I know a little about a lot of things. I'm much more likely to say "I'll try" than "I can't. "

I think of myself as a quiet guy, so it's surprising when I hear someone describe me as an extrovert.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

People fascinate me. I like to know what makes them who they are. I love to find out why they think what they do.

I am hoping that couch surfing will let me be more connected to the places I visit. I love the idea of learning the things only locals know.

What is in the tourist guidebooks isn't all that interesting. You won't ever find me at the Hard Rock Cafe, but you might find me in a local dive having coffee and eating breakfast.

兴趣

I am very eclectic: interested in everything. I am especially fascinated by natural healthcare.

• culture
• theater
• festivals
• film festivals
• cooking
• movies
• music

音乐、电影和书籍

My music collection on 'shuffle' would drive you crazy.

My favorite films are not the blockbusters, but smaller movies that are off the beaten track.

I am on the screening committee of the LGBT Film Festival in Louisville.

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

In one of my corporate jobs, I once rented the Presidential Suite at the Palace Hotel in New York under an assumed name. I ordered food and set up a beautiful banquet in the dining room. Once everything was ready, I left and turned the keys over to someone else. (My company's CEO wanted to secretly meet with the CEO of another company.)

教，学，和分享

I have literally been cooking since birth. (My family had a catering company, and my mom wrote a cookbook.)

I can teach some basic massage techniques.

我可以与沙发主分享些什么

I often travel with my massage table, my massage chair, or both, and would love to trade an incredible massage for lodging.
