CURRENT MISSION

To expand my world, personally and professionally

ABOUT ME

First of all I'm somewhat older than 40 which, in CS World, is remarkable in itself! That said, I am certainly living an unconventional life for someone my age: no longer married, working for clients around the world as a writer, explorer, and consultant; and actively engaging with urban life such as politics, music, and a number of community groups. The house itself is funky! Cycling as much and as seriously as I can.

PHILOSOPHY

Nothing that fits on a bumper sticker.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

I travel a good deal, for personal and professional purposes, and this is a great way to build a global community as I do it.

Generous, fun hosts all over the Eastern Seaboard of the US, from Virginia to New York and Boston. I've found that rarest of unicorns, a CS room in Hong Kong. And I've enjoyed vastly engaging and even profound conversations with people I've met this way.

I have not been in a position to host very often for the last few years, a combination of extensive work travel and a number, alas, of surgeries. But if you really need something, I may be able to come through and have done so as often as I can.

兴趣

Visiting my friends all over the world, and meeting new ones.
