About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Explore, Discover, Reveal and Learn.....

ABOUT ME

Hard to put into simple words. I am a very busy person. I have varied interests. I am the person you see listening and absorbing all around when you are in social gathering. I don't have to be around people to enjoy a moment. I am open and straight forward. I tend to listen and learn more than direct. I am a Christian and a good Samaritan. I won't push if you don't....

PHILOSOPHY

To keep the body in good health is a duty... otherwise we shall not be able to keep our mind strong and clear. ~Buddha
Experience is not what happens to a man, it is what a man does with what has happened to him. Aldous Huxley
To give anything less than your best is to sacrifice the gift.
Steve Prefontaine
I live to learn,experience, grow and discover. I don't like a person who tends to be closed off in thoughts or perceptions.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

this is new to me. It would be great to host people from various places and learn about them and they me. People who are not born in the USA would be great to host, learn about their country and their language.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have not couch surfed in years but did back in school.

Interests

I am a active person. I enjoy jogging, swimming and most outdoors activities. While i love technology i am still a guy who reads the paper in my hand not on the computer. While I have an Ipad i still enjoy the feel of the book. I read a great deal. I am trying to learn yoga.

Music, Movies, and Books

I don't get to the movies. I can wait until the dvd and enjoy it in the comfort of my house. Music for me is an eclectic experience. I listen to many types. I read various types of books but tend to enjoy a book, like a thriller that allows me to escape...

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I have run marathons, triathlons, open swam and climbed mountains. While i am cautious in my abilities i don't let a challenge overcome me.
