About Me

CURRENT MISSION

My goal is to make outstanding wine in California! Therefore I have come to France, Italy, Germany, Spain and Austria to teach me the old ways.

ABOUT ME

I love life! I like to try new things and meet new people. I also like to be a hermit and be by myself for periods of time, like on a trail hiking through the Alps.

PHILOSOPHY

I live my life without fear of loving too hard or living too much. I believe in truth and honor and treating all others the way I wish to be treated. I believe in following your heart and your callings wherever they ask you to go.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I just started... Hope to take advantage of some hospitable new friends as well as return the favor when I return to my homeland.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have had friends offer up couches for extended periods of time and repay them by cooking and cleaning and taking them on fun escapades that would normally escape those of us in the daily grind of life and work.

Interests

Fermented grape juice. Fantastic food. Sunsets. Cliffjumping and swimming in new areas. Skiing, hiking, biking and climbing. Futbol. Reading and writing. Spending time with friends and family.
