CURRENT MISSION

I wish to explore the world, meet terrific people, and through our shared experience become the greatest person I can be.

ABOUT ME

I'm a pretty neat guy, and I love to learn. If you're at all interesting, your time at my home, or my time at yours, will be very fulfilling.

PHILOSOPHY

Beneficence and self-improvement.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Well, I'm offering my couch, and I may eventually start using others.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

None so far.

Interests

Gosh lots of things. Perhaps even... all things? Its been a long time since I've been bored by a conversation topic.

Message me and we can talk.

Music, Movies, and Books

Books:
Lots and lots. Patrick Rothfuss, Norman Mailer, Dostoevsky, Philip Pullman, Dave Duncan, Tolstoy, R. A. Salvatore, any sort of non-fiction. I will read, or have already read, most of the old stuff that other people still read.

Movies:
Good ones. I've seen 90% of the IMDB top 250. I have an unfortunate genetic weakness for Romantic Comedies.

I also absolutely love Groundhog Day. Beneficence and self-improvement (see above) are the only ways to live a live worth remembering.

Music:
Lots, but it depends on the day. I have transient obsessions. No Death Metal.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Jumping out of a plane in California's Central Valley / standing on the Eiffel Tower / Falling at exactly 9.81 m/s^2 in a NASA zero-g plane / Falling down a mountain in Lake Tahoe

Teach, Learn, Share

I know a little about a whole lot; household maintenance to farming to global politics. We'll have a fun time talking.
