About Me

Hi - call me rolo
Mostly nomadic, in Texas at the moment - I live in Irving in a 26 foot Jamboree named Chíron

RV life is amazing - come and stay on my couch or in the queen-sized loft

I also have a few unconventional sleeping spaces for the truly desperate - tent and minivan.

Right now I am helping two urban farmers establish themselves in the DFW farmers market vibe.

scaling down and living simply

active in rock climbing, medieval Lit, history, creative writing

MY INTEREST is how love moves and appears within consciousness

ABOUT ME I'm a single dad of 3; a cross breed of Cali & Colorado - a sand-vball guru and river/lake lover

disc golf bag always ready

PHILOSOPHY: understand, relate to, and practice appreciation of all that differs

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING - I’m game to meet up anywhere outdoors, more likely to bring beers somewhere than to spend $$ at restaurants - chat me up for adventures OUT of the city or disc golf anywhere in midcities

Life and hosting in the RV is fun clean, and I’m a retired chef, so there is always good food

Always ready for a jam session

Music, Movies, and Books

Aluna, The Matrix Trilogy or Harry Potter = anytime, Anime any day. The Life of Pi, Cloud Atlas, BOOKS: Be Here Now, The Tibetan Book of the Dead, Medieval lit is my field, Arthur, Robin Hood, Chaucer ... but decolonial theory is in my heart - Walter Mignolo, Maria Lugones, and Franz Fanon are essential, Paulo Freire is a life changing read. MUSIC: always Bob Marley, Thievery Corporation and Maneesh D'Moore

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Ive visited the headwaters of the Amazon and was adopted by my hosts and family in Ecuador!
Si hablo español!!

Teach, Learn, Share

I’m in love with Ram Dass and welcome all seekers of loving awareness who are working on themselves

What I Can Share with Hosts

Life, poetry, music
I don’t actually smoke inside the camper folks - it smells like herbal oils in here - Patchouli usually -

pets are cool if they are small and quiet and are not carrying a bunch of other little couchsurfers 🪲🦟, ya know (I have a large dog kennel available).
