CURRENT MISSION

I have lived in the south all my life & can't seem to find the courage to move. But after the past 2 elections & a number of other issues on the news, I have found myself a little more courageous & ready to figure this country out. I'm ready to go see it!

ABOUT ME

whoa. me? well...i'm currently lost. mid-life crisis? not really. conformist gone awake? not at all! i'm quite the individual. friendly and compassionate. i honestly mean well to every action i make...that is how i try to live. honestly. i love life. never thought i'd live this long, so with every year i get more excited:)

PHILOSOPHY

philosophy...well, i guess mine goes along the lines of anythings possible. karma koncepts where everything happens for a reason. kindness. that is my mantra. to be kind & revolve myself around kindness as much as possible. and honesty. i'm ridiculously passionate about honesty. and showers/cleanliness...soap was made for a reason;)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

i am an ex-club kid. i hate that the "ex" is part of the title, but i have had to clean up my life a great deal & with that i had to distance myself from the "club" part. w/that in mind, i have slept in cars, tubs, under tables...hotels & motels...and...alot of couches;)

Interests

obviously photography (see education;) and design (see occupation;) ....but absolutely love character design (like sanx, morning glory, artbox, and many other asian artist designs:)

Music, Movies, and Books

i read anything from Ayn Rand to Harry Potter, passionate about bjork and electronic music (breaks, trance, etc...) and adore old b&w movies (AMC is excellent...best thing Turner ever did;)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

met some guys that were bicycling from michigan to florida on the beach. they had just finished their ride and we just happened to be there when they did it. we talked and talked until morning when the sun began to rise. we all went into the water and waited. the colors of the sun rising across the horizon of the ocean was the most incredible memory. it changed me. i think about those guys alot. life is short. and i am grateful i have that memory.
