About Me

CURRENT MISSION

I look to experience new things, learning along the way and meeting new, interesting people

ABOUT ME

I am a 'taster'. I love to try new things; whether its having an experience, meeting types of people that I've never experienced before; or teaching myself how to do something new. As an example, I'm now teaching myself to speak Italian and in a couple of years I plan to accompany my daughter on a senior trip to Rome and Greece. My belief is that you get out of life as much as you're willing to put into it.

PHILOSOPHY

Every person is in some way more knowledgeable than I am. In that way, I can learn from that person.
We all deserve to be treated with respect; others as well as myself.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Continually observing and learning new things, about people, the way we think and the things that we do.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

None yet.

Interests

Everything;
I have always read a lot. Now I listen to books on tape and podcasts a lot more.
I am fascinated by our human behavior, and what makes us tick. I love social experimentation and behavioral studies.
I enjoy working out and staying in shape; mostly through running and working with weights in the gym.
