CURRENT MISSION

Mutual Aid, Internationalism, and Positivistic Sloganeering

ABOUT ME

Silly, a storyteller, can be quiet and can be rowdy and fun.I know my way around history, and have a deep interest in learning the personal histories and perspectives of nearly everyone I meet, regardless if we share the same vision for the world. And I'm a vegetarian who isn't afraid of a meat-filled dinner table.

PHILOSOPHY

I love people. That is my starting point. Te amo el pueblo. Eso es mi punta principio.

Por que estou no Couchsurfing?

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I have hosted from several apartments I've lived in, and have also used couchsurfing as one of several ways to meet and stay with people in towns and cities they love and want to share. I can't understand wanting to visit a town or a city without visiting its people, and seeing the place through their eyes.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have made friends that I hope will last, some who I have returned to and/or who have visited me, which is the best experience. I have hosted as many as 11 people at a time, and people for as long as a month- and traveled across regions based partly on CS.

Hosted people from: France, Belgium, New Zealand, Mexico, the USA, Uruguay, Canada

Uma Coisa Incrível que Eu Fiz

I have seen so much, and yes the sunrise and the moon both still take my breath away.

Ensine, Aprenda, Compartilhe

I like to cook, to tell stories, and frequently advise people on questions ranging from philosophy to history to legalistic to political.
