I was born on the sea a long long time ago and have drifted too far from my roots... I appreciated getting to know all you landlubbers during my 'drifting years'... But alas, I have plans for heading back out to sea where I belong... After all, I am a xenophile by every sense of the word.

In my journey back to the sea-- this little Covey quote resinates with me and helps me focus on what matters...

"Things which matter most must never be at the mercy of things which matter least"
by Steven R. Covey

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I travel a lot... and this looks like a very euro style of travel I've done before-- a bit more concerning here in the states than overseas... we shall see... ;)

I am restoring an old Argentinian Sailboat-- and in-between haul outs for maintenance - I do not have anywhere to stay... hence my interest here...
