About Me

CURRENT MISSION
To learn as much as possible through books, travel, experiences and hosting rad people.

PHILOSOPHY

Life is precious and every breath we take brings us one closer to our last. Make the most of the breaths that remain, for our legacy and memory is worth only as much as we have brought to the lives of others.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have had the pleasure of hosting many awesome members of the Couchsurfing community, but have only had the opportunity to surf a few couches myself. Hopefully I will have the opportunity to surf more soon and meet friendly and fun hosts. :)

It is my desire to see more of the world, expand my view, and have more opportunities to find adventure.

Avid rock climber! I love all things: Psychology, Marriage and Family Studies, Sociology, Science, Arts, WSP, Grateful Dead, Cooking, Ethnic immersion activities, Yoga, Running, Healthy eating and living, Mindfulness

Music, Movies, and Books

I love reading scientific journals, repair manuals, and books on sociology and psychology. As for movies, I don't watch many, but I do like historically based tv shows.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

There are too many to just pick one: I'm doing the amazing thing called life: North Coast surfing at sunrise in California, watching and facilitating a child's growth as an intellectual and mindful being, loving and being loved selflessly, creating visual and performance art for the sake of creating something beautiful, recognizing how small we are in the grand scheme. Travelled Europe for a month without any plans past a ticket to Lyon and a ticket home from Glasgow.

Teach, Learn, Share

Teaching is what I do and I would love to share the knowledge I have gained in my short time on this spinning orb. I love learning about people's lifestyles, cultures and interests. As for sharing, I hope that we can share good conversation, laughter, kindness and friendship.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I love to share my cooking skills, conversation and attention with hosts. It is always nice to meet new people, share experiences and talk about past experiences.

Belgium, Canada, England, France, Germany, Netherlands, Scotland, Switzerland
