Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I am unable to participate by offering a bed because I do not have one available. But, I am more than willing to give you a tour around Lexington and have some coffee.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

there are so many.....One of the most amazing things I have seen took place in New Orleans LA at Jazz Fest. Stevie Wonder, yes...Stevie Wonder. He started the show with a 10 minute speech about how love can change the world if we let it. Right after his speech it started raining and continued raining for an hour. I remember being soaked from head to toe as I and my 30,000 other companions sung ribbon in the sky. Just when I thought it couldn't get any more perfect Stevie invited Art Neville onto the stage. The rest is history.

Teach, Learn, Share

I love learning. My world and its people have become my most prolific teachers. I completely believe that as we share we subconsciously allow others to liberate themselves
