CURRENT MISSION

Honest communication. Learning, sharing and above all, LAUGHING! We're all going to die anyway, so let's have some fun!

ABOUT ME

Humor is one of my favorite pastimes.
I love hiking, talking, meditating, watching a good movie or documentary, and eating and drinking delicious raw organic foods. My partner Derek and I live in a small house with a separate basement apartment, and a small studio with attempted permaculture going on in the backyard. Chickens, bunnies, raised beds and a greenhouse.

PHILOSOPHY

Life is a constant unfolding, when I think it should be a certain way, or I have an expectation of what will happen, I limit the possibilities. Most times, when I'm open to what will happen, it turns out to be better than I could have ever imagined! More love, less fear.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I've been lax in my participation. I hosted for a year, and then started a business, which is now closed.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
Stayed with an economics professor in Myrtle Beach, spectacular and what awesome conversation. Like having my own tutor.
Three good experiences so far! Good conversations, it would seem most couchsurfers are an interesting lot. I think this is a great way to promote understanding and connection!

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

Walking in the woods of Pa, after 18 inches of snow fell. The amazing silence, then I saw a young deer, and we both stood in silence, it let me get very close to it, one of the most beautiful things I've ever seen.

During a hot(August)road trip, I pulled into a motel parking lot, there were 2 people sitting at the pool, I think they were visiting from Germany. I asked if they would mind if I just jumped into the pool (with all my clothes on) to cool off. I did and got back in my car and continued to drive, much cooler.

教，学，和分享

One can quickly and easily make another feel better with some focused rubbing (it works on other species too!). Most of us hold tension in the shoulders, along the scapula and the tops of the shoulders. Have a person sit in front of you and gently, but firmly squeeze the trapezius muscle and hold until you feel it release. It should feel sore, but not painful to them. Increasing attention and blood flow helps relax the muscle and the person!
