About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Relax, go new and exciting places, have fun.

ABOUT ME

I'm adventurous,easy-going, inquisitive, and short. I worked in Korea for a year, then Abu Dhabi for about 2 years. I travel a lot. I've been to 87 countries the last time I counted. I'm trying to get to 100.

PHILOSOPHY

Go placidly amid the noise and waste...

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I hosted a bunch of people in Korea. There wasn't much interest when I was in the UAE.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I haven't couchsurfed. I stay at nice hotels when I'm on expense account and at cheap hotels when I'm not.

Interests

Photography, mostly. SCUBA diving, flying.

Music, Movies, and Books

I write for a magazine when I have time. I read a lot of magazines, but not many books. I used to go to movies a lot, but now I mostly watch them on planes. My tastes in music are pretty much everything except opera and rap.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Walking up a mountain at 3 AM to watch the sun rise over the Pacific on Alishan in Taiwan. Flying the Goodyear blimp. Diving a blue hole and with sharks and stingrays.

Teach, Learn, Share

I know how to fly planes, but I don't have a plane here, so that's not very useful. I can teach you to take better photos.
