CURRENT MISSION

Subversion!

ABOUT ME

I grew up in Miami Beach, traveled around for a while, and now live in New Zealand.

What I really like doing is hiking, camping, guerrilla theatre, gardening, and trying to make the world a better place. As a former high school teacher, I can say that one way to do that is to get rid of all schools! Unschool the world, that's what I say. Care to help me?

PHILOSOPHY

Love and nature.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

None. I have lots of WWOOFing experience, though.

Organic farming, capoeira, racquetball, American football, basketball, frisbee, lying in hammocks, playing UNO, fishing, swimming at the beach...

Music, Movies, and Books

In music, I love the Middle East: Cheb Khaled, Amr Diab, Sattar. I also grew up listening to Julio Iglesias, who is still great. Any lively Arabic or Latin songs with a good rhythm! Then I also dig classic rock (STYX, Kansas, Pink Floyd, Boston) and the folky stuff like Cat Stevens, Simon and Garfunkel, and even John Denver.

Authors: Gabriel Garcia Marquez, Herman Hesse, Peter Mathiesson. The Good Earth and Le Petit Prince are favorites.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Spent a year living in Grenoble, France, just writing a book and having fun with new friends.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach tai chi 10-form and 24-form.

I'd be happy to share, "How to Analyze Technology", since most all of us were never taught to analyze the effects (beyond the superficial).

I can also teach fun drama games!

And I'm working on my primitive wilderness skills, so I may be able to add that...
