About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To travel vicariously through others' experiences while planning our next trip

ABOUT ME

I'm an animal and nature nerd. Bob is a computer and science nerd.. We are both quiet in large groups and talkative in small groups.
We are gay and have been a couple for over 30 years.

PHILOSOPHY

The world is not black and white, but multi-colored.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Mostly through hosting surfers, going to Seattle CS events and meeting up local CSers when traveling. We've only surfed once and it was with somebody we had hosted before.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Interests

Hiking, camping, anything outdoors, animals, nature, organic gardening, permaculture, sustainability, ecotourism, good food, beer

Music, Movies, and Books

Movies: silly off-beat comedies, good sci-fi and action /adventure, interesting documentaries. Not into heavy drama
Books: mostly non-fiction
Music: 80s music, most anything on KEXP.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Several gorilla births, gorilla laughter, a 45 minute giraffe fight in Kenya (it was like two dinosaurs in a choreographed dance interspersed with violent punches), hiding out from the Congolese government in a remote isolated village
