Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
To save all of humanity in a vain attempt to impress a girl
ABOUT ME
What would my friends say about me? You'd have to ask them, or better yet meet me yourself!
I have traveled a fair bit in my short years, and now that I find myself landlocked and missing the conversations and differing views I find outside of my community. I am currently in the planning stages of my next adventure.
I have spent the last 5 years more or less in one place working in local sustainable organic agriculture. I am currently renovating a house. My couch is open as is my roof ;)
PHILOSOPHY
Life is a sieve through which anarchy strains, resolving itself into works.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I have attended potlucks at local coach surfing grand headquaters and feast hall extrondinar and like the people involved and concept of the site
Interests
I have many interests. Too many to list and keep you engaged while reading. That said some are: History and Culture, I have always and will always be interested in learning more about people and the places thy live.
Environmental activism, we have but one home, I cant understand why we trash it. I love the outdoors I never feel more at home or at peace than when in my native woods.
Music; playing and listening too it I mostly like punk but I'll keep it too myself so your ears don't bleed. Unless you're into that sort of thing.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Wow this is a loaded box, how can I explain all the amazing things one sees and does in a lifetime? Here are two
1) The first time I left my country I flew into Iquitos Peru and traveled up the Yarapa River into the Amazon. I can't put the rest into words.
2) In Shumen Bulgaria Standing in front of the crumbling edifice of soviet power. I have walked through the ruins of empire before, but never from a power that was live in my lifetime. It did wonders to adjust my world view and timescale. All things must change.
Teach, Learn, Share
Guitar - I can teach you to play poor songs well and good songs poorly.
History - I will inevitably teach you something about history (even if it’s trivial). I'm sorry, but I can't help myself.
Farming/Gardening - If you need help learning which end of the plant goes in the ground, I can probably give you a hand.
Cooking - If you've already figured out which part of a plant is good to eat and want to know how to cook it, I can likewise probably help you there
