CURRENT MISSION

To facilitate the experience of joy and enlightenment in others.

ABOUT ME

I'm a fire-eater, aerialist, acrobat and bullwhip artist. I travel a great deal and enjoy meeting people. I love to read and do crossword puzzles. Sadly, I'm on the road a lot, so my couch is not often open. But I do love hosting travelers when I can!

PHILOSOPHY

Pretty much everyone is capable of doing what they set out to do if they work hard enough and take small enough steps.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I wait to see if there is something I'll be able to help with.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I spent a few nights in Europe with Servas hosts but it's a bit formal for me (and it was back before the internet). I've also done AirBnB.

Interests

Reading, travelling, writing plays. I spend about 9 months a year on the road with the Aerial Angels. I'm also interested in Renaissance England, sociology and I read a lot of mystery novels.
