******If you’re looking to surf/stay please read the My Home section. I will know if you’ve done so. A personalized request always gets my attention. Others, not so much.

That said, I enjoy showing guests my city and regard it as a form of interaction and a way to connect with like-minded travelers.

Me: very youthful in spirit, easy-going, flexible, curious and adventurous.

I don't go out much at night these days but I still very much enjoy it while on the road and with other travelers. However, while hosting I really enjoy preparing and sharing a meal with beer and wine where it's more relaxed and conversation flows. Picnics are the best and SF is full of amazing places with views to do this.

I like discovering unpretentious places to eat so if that sounds good then hit me up. I have personal favorites in SF I can take guests.

Did I say I like food a lot?

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

I'm hooked on CS. I just recently (March 2019) took the plunge by hosting on a whim after receiving an emergency request and wound up having an amazing time. I'm still on that journey.

It's all about the people.

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

I apparently enjoy doing things that seem risky while away - like white water rafting with a busted arm, climbing mountains when I'm terrified of heights, jumping out of running buses and the like. And oftentimes I'm the oldest person doing this when I'm in a group of travelers.

我可以与沙发主分享些什么

A hearty meal, laughter and hopefully good conversation.

Also very handy and happy in the kitchen.
