Overview
About Me
CURRENT MISSION
Creating new experiences through travel and music
ABOUT ME
Originally I'm born and raised in California, but lived in Arizona and now in Greensboro, NC. Work a day job in aerospace, but at night jam with local musicians on my fiddle! I can cook up a mean plate in the kitchen, so if you're down to grill, slice, or fry, I'm down!
PHILOSOPHY
It's about finding your passion and keeping your sense of humor
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I've hosted some, been a surfer and definitely believe in talking with people in a new place to learn more about it rather than just getting all my knowledge through all the media outlets!
Interests
I play Irish fiddle (but jam on any style), cook, tai chi, run, hike, and like hanging out and meeting new people!

Music, Movies, and Books
I definitely like like some good traditional Irish music, singer song writer work.... Some groups out of the Northwest: Typhoon, Blue Scholars. I've been reading Jack Kerouac... On the Road... Dharma Bums
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
Living on a farm where at night, the only thing i had was a light. It was so weird because I started to write letters, read books... probably one of the most grounding lifestyles that I was able to take up.
Teach, Learn, Share
I am really into experiencing more. From traveling and meeting new people, to getting better at a craft or art. I'm open to talking about my experiences farming throughout Japan, playing fiddle at bars in Ireland, and teaching classes to local business owners in Nicaragua! I'm all ears to hear about your philosophies in travel, life, rock-paper-scissors!
What I Can Share with Hosts
I usually travel with my fiddle, so if you were into live music, I can play... Or if you like spending time in the kitchen, I can help build that awesome spread... Or if you want to just trade some travel stories, I'm open to that too!
