Belongs to the following groups
CouchSurfing
I am happy to see the proliferation of hospitality networks on the web, because often once a site becomes successful it initiates a fee for accessing it's services, as Travel-Chums started doing. By being a member of several such organizations, there will be pressure to keep them free to the public,and the advantage of having the option to utilize the services of another club if one does start charging fees. So I want to contribute to the success of all such clubs while they remain free, and will withhold my support only once fees become mandatory to access their services. Of course, this in no way should discourage voluntary financial support of all such free sites, as this is often crucial to their remaining free due to the expense involved in maintaing their site on the web.
Hospitality Club
I was one of the original members recruited by Veit for the Hospitality Club before it went live, and am interested in maintaining its goals.
Soccer
Both of our children grew up loving soccer and going to universities on soccer scholarships. Now our son coaches high school soccer, as well as coaching club soccer, and continues to play on several adult teams.
