PHILOSOPHY

If it isn't silly, it's probably not worth one's attention.
If it isn't humorous, relax and try again.
If it isn't fun, it's time to leave.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Interests

i enjoy the silly things in life, like political figures who fall from grace after they're proven to be hypocrites, long walks off short peers and the occasional mass cult suicide

• wine
• marathon
• traveling
• skiing

Music, Movies, and Books

I like to watch them, listen to different kinds, and read them. Loads and loads and loads... I'm thirsty and hungry for more!

Top Choices: Invisible Man (Ellison), Invisible Monsters and Fight Club (and anything by Palahniuk),

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Why only one?!

- Escaped from the womb
- I found nirvana in a Venetian square with musicians playing, a bottle of wine, a travel buddy, and the stars above.
- I ran a half-marathon in Shanghai.
- I skied in the Alps.
- I've met most of the cast from Finding Nemo while Scuba Diving in the Phillippines, Sri Lanka, and Israel).
- I got married in Thailand.. and China... and Russia (to the same lady)!
- I've been raising my son and daughter in a few countries.

Teach, Learn, Share

- Self-deprecating humor takes the gas out of someone's cruelty.
- Always ask for help when you need it
- There's no point in completely losing control of your bodily functions...unless you're sure everyone's watching.
