CURRENT MISSION

To master the banjo, put over 300,000 miles on my car, become functionally enlightened, and write poems about what I see.

ABOUT ME

I am a long-time meditator, mostly on silent retreats, and I'm really into Buddhist and other eastern/psychedelic type philosophy. I'm also pretty laid back, and just a funny guy. I am 28.

PHILOSOPHY

be the guy you want to see in the world

Warum ich bei Couchsurfing bin

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

When I can, I like to offer a space for others to travel safely and cheaply.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have couchsurfed with others about ten times total and my last time was two years ago on a cross country road trip. All my experiences have been really sweet and the hosts have run the gamut from college students to retired married couples in Las Cruces, NM, Austin, TX, San Francisco, CA, and Salt Lake City, UT. My favorite experience is playing music, cooking and chatting over breakfast with the other surfers, but I'm up for all manner of adventure too.
