CURRENT MISSION

My current mission is to see as much of the world as I can before my heart starts pumping dust.

ABOUT ME

Oh how nice it would be to live the rock star dream. I come daringly close without going over the edge into a VH1 special. Also, that's my second TV comparison on this profile and I don't remember watching the boob tube for any extended period of time within the last 6 years. I guess this is just my way of declaring that I have fond memories, but the relationship went sour.

I paint. I paint large and small and sometimes I do it on other peoples walls. I am studying how to do it well, and it will probably take me France someday to block myself from the world, and really push myself to create.

PHILOSOPHY

Be productive, be progressive, question everything you don't quite understand or don't remember. Keep that mind reeling.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I have given up my couch to many a traveler in need. Mostly just friends who are coming through town. I'll be ready to use my couch to make new friends soon enough.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

My experiences in couch surfing have always been pleasant. I have only really branched out from my home town for about a month of traveling, and when I wasn't paying to stay in hotels and hostels, I was hopping on peoples couches. My friend gave me a spot when I was in Oklahoma, My travel companion had friends in Texas with plenty of couches. And on the Return I found some couches in Colorado and Chicago through friends I made while traveling.

Interests

I am interested in people with stories. I want to meet more and more people that live on this giant planet with me.
There's art making that I do everyday, from doodling to installation projects.
I make beats on my computer, and I write a little here and there.

Music, Movies, and Books

Most of my life has been divulged in the world of fantasy, whether through movies, games, and books. I was hoping to turn that trend around and focus on the real, the contemporary, science, art, and philosophy. However, I am currently trying not to be bitter about having to read the Odyssey for a class.

Oh and I like Sole, Sage Francis, Kaki King, and Why?

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

There's this little old factory town in the Berkshires of Western Massachusetts called North Adams. Originally, I thought that the Museum of Contemporary Art (MassMoCA) was the most wonderful thing I have ever seen there. Until I was shown the creepy tunnel that goes underneath the mountain, and the graveyard in the rolling hills. Breath taking.

Teach, Learn, Share

I will bring my brain to your couch ready to share.
