CURRENT MISSION

To live in a constant state of change.

ABOUT ME

I was born. I went to school. I joined the Peace Corps. I am happy now, living in the Philippines and working with communities in dire need of plentiful, clean water here in the Philippines.

PHILOSOPHY

Just be. Nothing is permanent. Attachment is the cause of suffering. On a subatomic level, there is no difference between me, you, a hamburger and the great oceans of earth. Change is good and inevitable.

Dlaczego jestem na Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I have an extra double bed, I have a double-wide mattress. I live within 2 hours of the one place in the world where you can swim with whale sharks (the world's largest fish); Donsol, Sorsogon, Philippines. I live in the shadow of the world's most perfect cone volcano (Mt. Mayon). Come over, we will cook dinner and tell stories!

Jedna niesamowita rzecz, którą zrobiłem(-am)

I was caught in the most destructive typhoon to hit the Philippines in more than 30 years. I was up to my waist in water as jeeps floated by down the street in front of my house. I climbed the side of a building to get to safety. I saved a 70-year-old woman from potentially getting hypothermia or drowning by carrying her to safety.
