I like to move, learn, be humbled by nature, and share life with the diversity of souls that fill our world.

CURRENT MISSION
Find ecstasy in life; the mere sense of living is joy enough.

PHILOSOPHY
"Even after all this time the sun never says to the earth, 'you owe me.' Look what happens with a love like that. It lights the whole sky." -Hafiz of Shiraz

"When we're incomplete, we're always searching for somebody to complete us. When, after a few years or a few months of a relationship, we find that we're still unfulfilled, we blame our partners and take up with somebody more promising. This can go on and on--series polygamy--until we admit that while a partner can add sweet dimensions to our lives, we, each of us, are responsible for our own fulfillment." -Tom Robbins

"All that we are is the result of what we have thought. The mind is everything. What we think we become." -Buddha

"Happiness comes of the capacity to feel deeply, to enjoy simply, to think freely, to risk life, to be needed."

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I like to surf, in the ocean and on CS'ers couches. I also like to host whenever I can swing it.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've surfed and hosted across the world, and CS connections have enriched my life more than I can say.

教，学，和分享

I just want to grow. I learn from every person I meet.

我可以与沙发主分享些什么

I have lots of stories and good vibes to share. Also very generous with hugs. :) Lieze is a chef, so she's the food-wizard, and I'm always happy to assist with prep and cleanup.
