About Me

CURRENT MISSION

save some cash, and get a piece of land somewhere warm, peaceful, and with access to water. Wish to have own organic garden; and school my kids.

ABOUT ME

crazy, fun, highly educated, creative,kind,adventurous, brave, strong, talkative, good dancer, fighter.Vegetarian, and devoted servant of this planet. Do not accept authority,love and respect are to be deserved, not forced. Encourage independent thinking. There are not many things that surprise, or shock me; and even less that I'm afraid of.

PHILOSOPHY

Take only what you need at that time. Your taste- buds are bad moral judges. Do to others as you wish upon yourself. Just because someone treats you like crap, doesn't make you one. Don't be pathetic and ungrateful, and stop feeling sorry for yourself- you are given most increadible gift- life, treat it with love. Point of life is to live and learn. You should only compete with yourself.Live this life to the fullest, and take every chance you can: it's YOUR experience, nobody else can give you. If your kids don't need you when they grow up- you did something right.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Volunteer, recycle,shelter, support, demonstrate, protest, blog, help.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I came up with this idea 20 years ago, when becoming an obsessive- compulsive traveler. Have stayed on people's couches,and they on mine- so called it "couch-surfing". Years later, someone else made something good out of same idea. I'm happy. Working of Rainbow Pages now. Same as Yellow Pages, but for my tribes(wo)men.

Interests

Intelligent people with creative personalities; masters of their skill, philosophers and inventors. Love science, and nature. Nature being my God. Love being the religion.Everything interests me, if it has a spirit.

Music, Movies, and Books

Movies: Fight Club, Fear and Loathing, and anything that makes you think and laugh together. History, biography, science. Books: from classics to history, to sci-fi. Read about 5,000 books in my young life, can not possibly list any favorites- so many! Music:tribal, classical,folk and trance.To me, music should make you move and/or be a source of visions and inspiration.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Too many. Tired of telling old stories. In short: I've lived at least 5 lives, maybe generations worth of experience and struggle. Done some fast(spiritual)
growing up for sure!

Teach, Learn, Share

You can learn from anyone, in any situation. So,listen, observe, make mental notes, and move on to spread the knowledge. Even if it's something about you don't like- you are still learning. Without sharing, learning makes no sense. Knoweldge is for everyone, inventions, creations too. We are all a product of influence on each other, and personal choices. Ownership of an idea is degenerative to society, and insane in its core. Caring and sharing is how communities survive and grow.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Sorry, everyone; bit my family situation has changed, and I can't presently host anyone. Literally no space. However, I'll be reading your requests from now on; and if there is a window where my family members are not All present, there is a couch for a night available.
