CURRENT MISSION

Travel works in two directions: one can go places, or people can bring their place to us. Every new person brings a bit of their world into mine -- and I love that.

ABOUT ME

Another gay San Franciscan! I'm pretty easygoing with nimble conversational skills. I've always been a gentle brother, father, uncle, and friend. As Judy Collins sings, "I've seen life from both sides now."

PHILOSOPHY

Be kind, while there is still time.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I've organized the Queer SF Couchsurfing Picnic with Mark Simmons. And generally stay up with Things CS on the website. I am a good reply-er, so feel free to write me.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Have hosted about a dozen CSers and feel like I know the ropes at this point.

Interests

The usual stuff: gaming, HBO, dog, meeting gay guys from around the globe.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Sunrise over the Arno in Florence after being out all night. Taking a carload of Moroccan kids to a local river and just playing all day in the water (Orange, France). Having tea at 3 AM with an Australian boy I met at the Detour Bar (San Francisco). Morning hike in Arches National Monument (Utah).
