我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

Looking for a place to crash in Lake Merritt area of Oakland while I start a new Program Management Job. Was home caring for my Mother when I got
offer but moving here from Louisiana tapped most of my savings so need a place to stay for a week until I collect my first paycheck and can afford to move into my own place.

Food: All of it

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

I've been studying guitar, vocals, and music theory since I was knee-high to a grass-hopper. I've been programming software for about as long. I started cooking even before that (much to my Mother's initial chagrine) and reading even earlier. So yeah, I'm a master foodie-musician-techno-genius. Or a crazy Cajun. You decide

Amazing might be a stretch....I've travelled to Europe, Asia and through the Americas...worked for startups & the Fortune 500 and once got to work and play music with a Grammy Winning Musician.

Not sure if that qualifies as amazing, though....

我可以与沙发主分享些什么

I have a little bit cash and have good quality food ingredients & I (like most Cajuns) love to Eat & Cook. I've cooked for my current AirBnB hosts and previous ones as well so you'll have a chance to enjoy authentic Cajun delicacies made by me 👨‍🍳
