CURRENT MISSION

Gathering contacts to make our families year around the world trip more meaningful

ABOUT ME

Agreeable laid back sort of guy, who enjoys life. I'm just as happy out and about with big crowds and staying at home quietly with my family.

PHILOSOPHY

From F. Scott Fitzgerald, "he used to think that he wanted to be good, he wanted to be kind, he wanted to be brave and wise, but it was all pretty difficult. He wanted to be loved, too, if he could fit it in." I figure it was being as kind, brave, and wise as I could be that granted me the wealth of love I have now, so I have to keep it up.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

My family is planning on taking a year off and traveling the world in nine years, we hope to accumulate relationships before we take off on our travels.

Interests

Family. Personal relationship are what enrich life. Family that loves to play outside such as bike riding or camping is even better.

• cycling

Music, Movies, and Books

I'm the music collector in the family and it is my wife who is the book collector. I love most stuff with acoustic guitar and play myself. My wife has read every general classic book and many contemporary, if she hasn't read it she probably has heard of it. We both love movies based on comic books, but my wife is also a classic movie's buff. Marx brothers are her favorite.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Two moments that formed my family, my wedding day and the birth of my children, will always be the days I think of first as the happiest and most moving of my life. But riding motorcycles always gives me a thrill too.

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm very tech savvy and can show how to use the latest and greatest gizmos. My wife has a background in archaeology so knows a lot about oldest and extinct gizmos.
