About Me

CURRENT MISSION

I very much like turning a risk into an adventure by hosting or being a guess with my not yet friends to see the wonders of our planet. I am discovering the meaning of life which is simply enjoying the passing of time and at times sharing with a friend.

ABOUT ME

I am a retired Counselor/Social Worker type who was raised in NY and now reside most of the time in Orlando Fl. I am extremely honest, neat, respectful and a true friend. I do pay my own way and share with others who have fallen on hard times if I can. I do not drink, smoke or do drugs but if you have a drink or so that is up to you. I could not stay with anyone who is into drugs, is a very heavy drinker or not gay friendly.

I love humor and a good time and open to many types of lifestyles and beliefs. My family, old friends and new one's and all they have to offer is my key to enjoying the passing of time.

The child with-in has come out to play and travel. Yes, Mr. Disney "IT'S A SMALL WORLD AFTER ALL" thanks to CS and it's members.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I am new to CS and looking to hosting my first visitors here in Orlando, FL USA. I am open to all from not only my country but from around the world. Short notice or emergency visitors welcome.

Interests

I truly enjoy most anything outdoors from camping, the beach, exploring, flee markets, garage sales, community activities , etc. As much as I enjoy the outdoors being inside cooking, decorating, board and card games, TV and a good movie or just reading can be fulfilling. I am open to new adventures as long as I keep my feet on the ground LOL.
