CURRENT MISSION

When people talk to me they say, "Wow, I wish I could do that!"

ABOUT ME

I strive to create lasting moments that are never forgettable. I've read enough books to fill a large parking garage and I strive to devour more daily. My writing tends to look good to me although it could always use a bit of work. There is something spiritually intense about spending the night outside underneath the stars, watching them dance as I lay on the ground with my hands clasped behind my head. Hiking and backwoods camping provide some of my most peaceful times for reading and thinking. In a prior life I must have been a sushi chef at Matsunozushi. I have an affinity for all exotic foods, oriental cuisine being my favorite.
Everyone out there has something to offer. I am more than happy to put my social engineering skills to work and find out as much as I can about anyone.

PHILOSOPHY

"I went to this really good bring your own wine place. It's called the park."

"even though i'm not gay whenever i get asked how i like my coffee i like to say 'black - like my men'. i don't care. the coffee at church sucks anyway."

I love these quotes because they make me laugh. I believe laughter can make everything better. I love to surround myself with people who make me laugh and I love to make the ones around me laugh.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I have a couch. People sleep on it. We do fun things. Not fun things on the couch. Fun things out on the town. The couch isn't big enough for fun things, although once I did use a couch as a sled and that was a fun thing but we will not be using my couch as a sled if you come visit.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Using my couch as a sled could technically be considered "couch surfing" but I have not stayed on anything elses couch nor has anyone stayed on mine through this website.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

i was walking down the road and i saw this 2 guys standing over something. at first i couldn't tell what it was but as i got closer i realized it was some sort of dead animal. when i got to the 2 guys one looked at me and said 'it's a dead cat'. 'are you sure it's dead' i told him 'cause sometimes they pretend so you won't eat them'.

I want to learn everything I possibly can. If i'm not familiar with something that you know very well, don't be suprised if I ask you question after question about it!
