Über mich

I currently can't host as I've moved out to the middle of nowhere, but I'm leaving my profile open in case people want to contact me

CURRENT MISSION

To find the good things in the world

ABOUT ME

I like to get out into the world and see those things I really want to see, and hopefully find more of the wonderful things (like love, beauty, humanity, joy, virtue, adventure) that I know are out there, and I've been experiencing through CS.
I'd rather live a risky magical life than a joyless mundane one.

PHILOSOPHY

I believe in liberty, love, society and humanity. I think strength is a virtue, and wisdom takes both experience and judgement. Other virtues I value include courage, honesty, generosity, joy de vive and loyalty. I think all these things are rare, in our world, but worth searching for, and encouraging.
I do not value weakness, in any of its forms...

Warum ich bei Couchsurfing bin

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I have been an enthusiastic Auckland host. Now I can't host, but I like to hear from people. I put my weight behind good causes like CS, and against personal politics or any unjust repression of liberty if I see it.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I once hosted a complete stranger by accident... long story, involving mistaken identities... It was surprisingly liberating, for both of us :-)
Since Feb 2008 I have hosted lots of people (easily over 1000 surfers), and I love it, especially when they join in my crazy life...

Interessen

Musik, Filme und Bücher

Books: love intelligent SF and fantasy, esp short stories, and books written by Humanist authors
Music: anything but country and western.

Eine tolle Erfahrung, die ich gemacht habe

I've taught 70 year old ladies how to breakfall, and how to disarm a knife-wielding attacker. I think the amazing thing was that they had the cahoonies to ask to learn.

Lehren, lernen, teilen

Teach: acrobatics, whips, bellydance, self defense/ systema, Western Medieval weapon combat and some history, making chainmail, how to set fire to yourself
Learn: how to travel on a shoestring, more advanced acrobatics

Was ich mit Gastgebern teilen kann

Acrobatics and other interesting parlor tricks :-), stimulating philosophical conversation
