About Me

the places where I may offer to reside together may be:

Eolian island, Sicily
Lake of Como
Western Alps
Venice


enjoy
to be in touch with "flow here and now"
open to share resonance
in a simple natural way

perhaps a kindred in spirit
who happens
to walk countercurrent
speedy traveling trend

practice slow journeys
and slow cooking

savoring vast spaces in a small space

uninterested
to gulp down travelling information

feel grateful whenever communication
flows in
silent kindness
perhaps warmth
so rare and precious

enjoy to be
lost in nature mystery

open
when touched by vast sky
and natural waves

searching and surfing through this unknown darkness beyond words

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I hitchhiked highway1 from Seattle to Mexico four times back and forth
during the seventies
deep savoring of vast emptiness never ending hours on back of trucks
vast ocean and dunes of sand on my road edge
couch surfing in homes of casual encounters in villages
by the road
memorable time
