CURRENT MISSION

Lightening up. It's only a ride.

ABOUT ME

Hello/Dag!
I'm a brand new couchsurfer and really excited about joining this community. I quit my job in Canada, to visit places I'd never been.
Really looking forward to meeting some couches (and the people that own them!)

PHILOSOPHY

Totally a work in progress as I grow and learn and mature. Sort of a combination of Taoism, and Bill Hicks.
Was recently inspired by the book Zen And The Art Of Motorcycle Maintainence, by Robert M. Persig.
Reason and logic and science give us great great things, but have we lost something in the process? Quality of life, for all life, is most important. Hopefully we are getting there with communities like couchsurfing!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

This is my first attempt at participation. I'll see where it goes. I could see getting addicted to this site. It almost seems it could or should be a way of life!
