About Me

CURRENT MISSION

ABOUT ME

I am a curious seeker - seeking to serve in the unfolding of human evolution. I love music -live music, the outdoors, educated debate, the strength and wisdom of the spirit, community gatherings, travel, healthy living / healthy eating, and positive thinking. I appreciate intelligent, kind, and fucused people.

PHILOSOPHY

Reach, grow, focus, love, transform, go beyond the self, be aware of the turmoil and negative in order to know how to slide through or around it

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I am fairly new to CS, though I have heard of it for many years. I will pass the word on online and by word of mouth.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have travelled quite a bit and have both couch surfed and hosted couch surfers many, many times in my life. Many times I have let friends who were traveling or between places stay on my couch or a spare bedroom. I have also had virtual strangers stay over if they were nice and needed a place to sleep.
