spoiler alert: I smoke Tobacco, but I don't mind people who don't :)
Hello and thanks for your time. I am a person devoted Music and Art. I enjoy asking questions and questioning my own beliefs. I work hard at staying in touch with my humility and generous spirit as a mode of living. I want to hold space for these things and associate with and build relations with others who also want to hold space for these things (creativity, humility, generosity and solidarity).
Of course this is a work in progress. I also believe in giving my self/others a break, doing no harm, not wasting food, moving with the Tao, walking as transport and more.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am here, on this planet. I have been on disability for some years and have a steady income. That income is not so vast and I have had trouble in recent years finding any living situation within my means in my community. A friend suggested couchsurfing.com and here I am. Hoping to find a stable situations of any kind to reside in. Also I am interested in building new relations across new distances. I see this site as a possible means to that grand end.
Thanks
Mikhail

Music, Movies, and Books

Too many to name really... I love the effervescent cloud that is all creative works through time. Sounds silly but to cut any part off or suppose a division seems a waste to me. Many musics modern and traditional alike.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Survived my own life; we're all amazing in that way.

Teach, Learn, Share

I like all three!

What I Can Share with Hosts

I was raised by men who loved to cook, so I know my way around a kitchen. I can play many instruments for jamming with or entertaining others alike and will always say yes to an opportunity to be musical. I have always enjoyed spiritual conversation when it arises organically and can candid and sincere reflections. i
I have a knack for finding lost things. I was a professional carpenter and house painter by trade for decades and still retain many of the tools from my full-time days.
