About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To taste again of being a guest!

ABOUT ME

Create your own visitor map!

PHILOSOPHY

Less is more... simplicity of character and lifestyle in this achievement addicted world is brave and the natural result of profound thought. Be still and know God. When the crowd claims to be thinking outside the square then it is the square that gains my attention. When in history wasn't the world's climate changing? Highly value and remain committed to preserving our total environment, both biological and social. Libertarian, in a context of observing social ethics and mutual responsibility.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I guess that just hosting is quite a reasonable start for now... at least it keeps the whole show on the road! :)

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

While my present situation doesn't allow me to travel, I have enjoyed and been deeply touched by many enriching experiences as a host... a way to travel without leaving home and the best way to meet the friends I didn't know I had before!

Interests

Travel? ;-) and all the joys that being alive in this still beautiful world provides, including but not restricted to... art, music, cinema, food, coffee...
