ABOUT ME

Writer, Teacher

PHILOSOPHY

Mash up the Tao Te Ching with the Sermon on the Mount and you're pretty close.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

I like to participate when I am traveling, to hike, to volunteer, to help out, and to feel that I am a part of wherever it is that I am and not just a tourist.

My experiences in hosting Couchsurfers and in Couchsurfing have all been positive. I've made many friends and shared many great experiences. I keep in touch with a lot of people I met Couchsurfing. It's a great community.

我可以与沙发主分享些什么

I almost always like to take hosts out to a great dinner in a good restaurant. I enjoy that. But I can write, teach, cook, and help out. I'm also a good massage therapist. I like working.
