I like to be creative and I like to learn. I'm a very good problem solver, and very artistic as well, which comes out in both my musical inclinations, and my design and development work. I'm also building a software startup with my wife.
My chief passion, however, is spirituality, and I do my best to keep my life oriented in that direction.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

I believe there's a whole generation of people that feel uprooted, with no patch of dirt that really means "home". For people like us, home is where hang up our hat, and the people we encounter become an important part of our lives, for a time.

兴趣

Software development, learning new things and building new things, fixing mechanical things, building and dreaming up inventions. I like playing and listening to music. I try not to be lazy, and try to do things that are important, that I'll be proud to have done at the end of my life.

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

Lived in a cooperative house. The way our house, as a group, grew, tackled conflicts, and planned events has shown me the true power of relationships in working out problems to big to be dealt with by one person.
