Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
Embarking on what I'm labeling as a "epic adventure" in my "Magic Bus" (I bought a cargo van and coverted it into a camper. I hope to explore and see all the great sites and parks. And of course catch up with all my friends and make new ones.
ABOUT ME
I'm getting old, but young at heart. I'm a drummer (used to be pretty darn good.), I'm into photography, Hockey is my favorite sport other than surfing. And I suffer from wanderlust!
My web presence includes:
1) My photography site: www.whereisDJtoday.com
2) Facebook page for uploading travel photos in near real time: www.Facebook.com/whereisdjtoday
3)My Blog: www.djandmusing.blogspot.com
PHILOSOPHY
I think the purpose of life is.... To Experience! Plain and simple.
I think the "Meaning of Life" is.... Whatever you choose it to be.
What is the Meaning of Life I've chosen? Ask me after a beer or two :)
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I've converted my cargo van into a camper van so I always have a place to stay. But I love couchsurfing because it's a great way to meet new people and share experiences. And it's always nice to get some "Locals Knowledge" about the new areas I'm traveling to.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I'm new to the site so we will see. So far I've met 2 hosts and although I didn't actually stay with them in their homes it was really nice to hang out with them.

Teach, Learn, Share
I'm a student of Buddha Dharma. I would say I'm not qualified to teach, but I can definitely bounce some ideas around. I have also giving drum and surf lessons in the past.
In general I believe in teaching whenever you can, learning constantly and ideally sharing everything.
