About me I am generally a very private person when it comes to my house i haven't put up any photos I've even blocked google maps from using them but once I get to know you and meet you I have good sense and I'll know if I can trust you so anyone that has bad intentions please do not bother I do have dogs and they are my first judge and they will protect me. Also there are chickens so fresh eggs in the morning ducks 9 of them at present 5 dogs they stay with me on my end of the house and lots of property to explore in the back yard a couple creeks a swamp and my neighbor has another 30 acres to ride on yes its country here so there are a couple 4wheelers. Tiki bar Pool Jacuzzi large living room yes its kind of social central wii xbox media center pc, I'm close to the large theme park Carowinds and 5 mintues from the Lake Wlyie and about 20 minutes to downtown Charlotte NC the the other benefit of the area is there is only one road from my house to charlotte hwy 49 so you can go just about anywhere Interstate 77 or the outer belt 485 . My area is safe quite and beautiful in the summer.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I've met a few people from china that travel here on occasion and they were just wonderful people and I would love to have the company and have them stay with me as for formal I am not, I am pretty country with manners and I am very open and honest with people I meet.. I am still unsure of taking in guests I only have one guest room but if it can make someone's trip less expensive and more enjoyable I'd be more than willing to help I was raised by a german family and they would take in fellow travelers and its been my way as well I will help people broken down on the highway so I guess I can give this a try, So Eleven if your reading this you are the reason I've created a profile.

Interests

My interests good list of things I'm a pretty big computer geek I've always got my hands on the latest software game or hardware, I love my motorcycles 4wheelers and my truck I did sell the jetski sorry travelers it was time getting older I think I'm getting a boat next well after I get a tractor too much property not have one. I like to build things bars benches electronic items switchs , I love to talk about interesting topics I've been collecting dental items I've just acquired all the tools for that I'm working on acquiring defibulator oxygen tank other items of health I figure having that and a big conversion van If someone in the neighborhood has a heartattack and knows I have them I might be able to keep them from brain damage I've had this one project i'd really like to make its the lucas chest compression tool I figure I can make one close and use a battery operated reciprocation saw as the compressor lightweight portable.. Umm lets see that's really what's been on my plate but without others to help I'm unable to complete a lot of things i'm very good at some things I have the ideas and a lot of the know how and can see how I want to do them but it takes others to actually help that's why I enjoy meeting others that have other skill sets..

Music, Movies, and Books

I like everything any knowledge is fine with me retention is another thing..
Mostly I like comedy it takes me away from lifes depression.. All music even some rap books I prefer medical military engineer type reading.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

The most amazing thing I've done I've been honest with everyone I ever met.. I don't lie I may not tell you something but I'll never Lie. That in this day is Amazing.
The other amazing thing I have in my pocket and if you read the interest paragraphs I have a neighborhood plan for a working community health station where everyone can use a variety of health programs books and tools to learn how to do things for themselves relying on others is always key but to rely on them for everything all the time is foolish.

Teach, Learn, Share

Well I can teach you what I know about computers I'm an excellent hardware tech. learn i'll take anything you have to offer Share yes please I have many projects that I would love to share with the world I've always wanted to make free power devices solar to sterling engines peltier to sterling I've just got to many things to pick from.. I don't have the people around me to propagate most of the projects I have in mind because i'm always lacking specific knowledge or know how.

What I Can Share with Hosts

What can I share oh I thought I just covered some of that above.. I can share fresh eggs, waking up to a bunch of ducks quacking at ya. Barking dogs waiting to be fed. Give me some liquior I'm irish the music goes loud.
