Hey, I'm Stephen I've been all over the place over the last four or so years. I have spent a lot of time in-between the Pacific Northwest and the South with lots of strange situations strung along the way.
I am trying to recover from living on the road. By that I mean I'm still trying to gain my life tools. I am looking into the world of Stage Makeup, Special FX , and Costume Design. I'm hoping moving up to Seattle will open me up to the world I plan to build a career in.
I can cook if I've got food to do it with and love cleaning up the mess. I spend a lot time out in the city checking out little things finding holes; parks, markets, bars, scenery. When it comes to partying though I'm much more on the cheap side. I'd rather just grab a cheap pack of beer than go out to overpriced bars.
I'm interested in all types of live shows and I have a really broad interest in music, I don't play any music but I have always had a lot of friends that do passionately. I paint and draw and don't mind sitting down for a craft session.
I like to play dress up and I know the rules to True American… kinda

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I just made a journey from New Orleans to Portland, Oregon to celebrate the lives of a couple friends I lost while on the east coast and am now trying to stay in the Pacific Northwest.
I'm trying to relocate to Seattle permanently and need to have my time to find work out there. I have friends and family out there but having places out there lined up sounds like a good plan. (I'm trying to cover all my bases.)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I have walked the 140 mile strip of freeway that goes from Houston Texas in less than three days. Walking sometimes twelve hours a day. While doing this the only thing I had to eat was a bag of Juanitas, two carrots, an apple and a bottle of water. Texas isn't so big on hitching so I just stopped wasting my time.
