Heyo!

I'm Ben, I'm 24 years old, and I live on the Big Island of Hawaii. I just quit my cushy corporate job and am heading to California to play music, get closer to richer culture and arts, and expand my horizons.

I've been a cultivation biologist by trade and have been growing algae and gourmet mushrooms for the past two years. I have some leads for work to continue doing that in California, but I don't want to commit to anything before I get a good lay of the land.

I'm an open minded person that truly loves connecting with other humans from all walks of life. I am open to go exploring with host but am totally capable of entertaining myself if there is a scheduling conflict and you're too busy.

Perché sono iscritto su Couchsurfing

I'm on Couchsurfing because I want to get the unfiltered experience from the places I visit and connect with the cool local people who occupy them.

Interessi

My biggest interest are people, my biggest passion is play. Specifically, I love making music, rock climbing, slacklining, snowboarding and skiing, surfing, martial arts, the healing arts (most familiar with Yoga but open to all), learning, helping and teaching others whatever I know.

Insegna, impara, condividi

I'd love to teach people how to slackline, rock climb, create music, or whatever else I can!
