Been awhile Couchsurfing. I used to use this platform a ton, then took a break for a number of years.

Curious to see who's active in the community and what kind of connections can be made.

Most of my best friends were made through this platform over the years, and I'd like to keep that streak going.

I meditate a lot, own a digital marketing agency, love to travel (if that weren't immediately obvious), have a wicked and irreverent sense of humor, am extremely protective of (and get along great with) children, and believe in treating people with respect and civility even when we disagree.

I like to practice jiu jitsu, archery, and will incinerate any dance floor within a 10 mile radius. I'm into red meat, moss on trees, dogs that look like wolves, and blending philosophy, metaphysics and psychology.

I'm always ready to contribute to friends that feel like family, and I love sharing wisdom and practical application to assist people in finding solutions to their problems.

PHILOSOPHY

"The one in whom no longer exist the
craving and thirst that perpetuate becoming;
how could you track that Awakened One,
trackless and of limitless range."

-Dhammapada

"A good traveler has no fixed plans
and is not intent upon arriving.
A good artist lets his intuition
lead him wherever it wants.
A good scientist has freed himself of concepts
and keeps his mind open to what is.

Thus the Master is available to all people
and doesn't reject anyone.
He is ready to use all situations
and doesn't waste anything.
This is called embodying the light.

What is a good man but a bad man's teacher?
What is a bad man but a good man's job?
If you don't understand this, you will get lost,
however intelligent you are.
It is the great secret."

-Tao Te Ching
