About Me

CURRENT MISSION

explore the port hood by bike, foot, and photo trickery while maintaining my long term memory

ABOUT ME

I am outside, but appreciate the inside. I walk slow, but run fast. I know how inertia works but please don't ask me to explain it. I turned my wall into a canvas and get crazy with spray paint from time to time. I work from home and draw pictures. Sometimes I get paid.

PHILOSOPHY

Treat life as a journey and not a series of steps that must be followed. Share your journey with others and experience the meaning of reality. I still have a hard time understanding why penguins cant fly, but people can.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I am currently not participating in any form other than trying to find a couch in Portland one night this week. However I am planning on opening up my couch if this is a good experience.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I am a CS virgin, but I do sleep on my couch frequently. I actually prefer the couch over the bed most nights. Plus my dog has take over the left side.

Interests

I like to paint, draw, MTB bike and perform random acts of kindness. I also enjoy trying new BBQ joints every week. (I'll have to explain this one)

  • dogs
  • performing arts
  • bbq
  • triathlon
  • running
  • flying
  • painting
  • drawing
  • cycling

Music, Movies, and Books

I like movies that are short since my attention span has shortened. I think life is way more interesting when you participate. I like all types of music but mainly just leave it on KEXP Seattle while I work. Really depends on my mood though. I wish I read more, but the current book I am reading now is 'Outliers' by Malcolm Gladwell-- great book

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I completed a triathlon and walked on the moon. Actually it wasn't really the moon. In fact I may have just dreamed that.
