CURRENT MISSION

gathering with open-minded people who love to explore and change their perspective

ABOUT ME

Can you really write "all about you" in a window, but here goes in a nutshell... been a student of either the university system or independently all my life, widely traveled, avid note-taker, worked in many fields from an table-waiting artist to managing large art projects in business, not conservative but can make a good show of it.

PHILOSOPHY

it changes as I change, but I guess that is the core is the same to get comfortable with the idea that it is always changing
You own nothing, you are just renting for a lifetime

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I can offer a couch in one of the best (I am biased) places in Marseille with no better view of the city and the sea. Insight into the city for visitors and lots of coffee to see it all.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Love the stories and spirit of the project. I have hosted 4 surfers so far and find it like taking a vacation from the daily humdrum by taking a different perspective.

Music, Movies, and Books

My westcoast attitude says the "Big Lebowski", but my eastcoast self says the poem "Invictus" by William Henley, love the poetry...my fav is 1946 print of A Book of Treasured Poems, which I read when I get rattled.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Communicating without words...the human language that binds us...see it almost everyday
