About Me

CURRENT MISSION

I am ready for an adventure, just me, to clear my mind and enjoy my own company - AND see some great sites while I'm doing it.

ABOUT ME

I am a serial entrepreneur and a wanna be comedian. I read the book 4 hour work week in June, and now I wanna run my business just like Tim Ferris. So why not start by taking some jaunts around the world.

I have a partner, we have been together 17 years, but this next trip is all about me.

PHILOSOPHY

Life is short, enjoy it or miss out. Treat others better that you expect to be treated. Kharma is real, so don't let it run over your dogma.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I am brand new to this - so I am learning, learning, learning!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Does following someone home after drinking too much count? Well that was a long time ago. But I guess in my college days, I did do some couch surfing, sleeping where the party stopped. But not really travelling around like I'd like to do now.

Interests

I love fishing and I enjoy the outdoors. I want to improve my stamina to enjoy hiking and the like, but I am really a novice at it now.

Music, Movies, and Books

The Four Hour Work Week, The Green Book, Fried Green Tomatos, and while I'm not much of serial TV watcher - I am HOOKED on BiG Love. I read way too many business books and not nearly enough for pleasure. I do enjoy mystery novels, and suspense and action (not horror).

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Great question... I think that's what I need from Couch Surfing, to get that first amazing thing. That is amazing to me.

Teach, Learn, Share

My chief busienss skill is really marketing, but it pours over somehow into a life skill - because life is about the perception. You control your perception by allowing the onion to be peeled back, and having the true you shine through.
