CURRENT MISSION

International Study of Sustainable and Primitive Practises

ABOUT ME

Currently on six month tour of Japan. Some of my goals are to study and experience the sustainable production of bamboo, tea, rice, thatch roofing, miso, and sake.

PHILOSOPHY

Reality is connectedness. Being connected to what is real makes life meaningful. I become connected by intuitively pursuing interests, especially where inspiration and opportunity overlap. Or something like that...

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Just getting started. My current lifestyle is about 90% travel. My primary contribution would have to be giving couch surfing a good name by being the best guest a host could ask for.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have not yet used the CS network to couch surf. However, I have had many "unofficial" CS type experiences throughout my life. Most recently, while volunteering at an organic farm in Portugal, a young lady was so interested in my project that she insisted I stay at her house for a full month. It was a fabulous experience and I think we will always be friends.
