CURRENT MISSION

This is the blessing of a global community. Before we can save the planet, we had best save ourselves; we can do this together.

ABOUT ME

Philosophical, yet leaving out the WHY; what to do and how to do it are the important steps.
When one removes SORRY from one's speech, one's less likely to ever need to use it.

I'm a raconteur and have a story for everything; no fear, I'll shut-up.....when you interrupt. ;)

PHILOSOPHY

Ideally, one would deal with everything with gracious acceptance; in reality, we all have human traits that make it a lifelong challenge to apply.

When your fortune fades, share what you have left.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Offering a place to stay. One year, over a decade ago, and long before I'd ever heard of Couchsurfing, I was without visitors for five whole days!
One day I may accept your hospitality, though that's not my motivation.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

More than a hundred CouchSurfers have stayed here in the last two years.
Look forward to meeting you.
