CURRENT MISSION

Let's Build a Global Resume Together

ABOUT ME

I love to read, write short stories, stage plays, screen plays, play guitar, play drums, laugh, laugh some more, tell stories, hear stories, meet new people and waste no time.

I consider myself a filmmaker, as a writer / producer. I'm also an outdoors man. I enjoy rock-climbing, long distance camping, and general mountaineering. I worked for Outward Bound for a while.

PHILOSOPHY

Hmmmmm, create your own living tombstone.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I'm helping to build this community by being kind toward everyone I meet. When I meet new surfers, it's a point to learn about them, share stories, and keep in touch. Who knows what the future holds?

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have had nothing but great experiences with everyone I have surfed with. I have hosted several folk and have surfed my fair share. I've never had a bad experience.

Interests

Percussion. Guitar. Reading. Writing, poetry, novels, live-theatre, the works. I'm sort of a business guy by day and a poet by night.

Martial Arts. Capoeira, mainly.

Music, Movies, and Books

Film:

Well... I like a lot, and it's broad.

Anything / everything Hayao Miyazaki.

I'm drawing a blank, but that's just a compliment to Miyazaki.

Literature:

Every word of Yukio Mishima.

Richard Bach (Jonathan Livingston Seagull & Illusions are works of art), Carlos Castaneda, Charles Bukowski...

Beat Generation stuff, too.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I went to Honduras for a month and during my trip I attained my PADI certification. I scuba dived to about 110 feet and swam around a ship wreck. Later I went on a night dive, 60 feet under the ocean surface and saw some amazing creatures.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach guitar, drums, business mumbo jumbo. I can be an awesome rock climbing & camping partner and will instruct. I'll teach you how to tie knots!
