I am a loveable, adorkable, sarcastic, bearded fiend. Basically, I'm just a laidback guy who likes to make people laugh.

At the moment I am not hosting guests because my living space does not allow for it. But I will be moving later this year which will make hosting possible.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I honestly have very limited income for traveling, but I have stayed in Hostels. This opened my eyes to how great connecting with fellow travelers can be.

Interests

Long bubble baths in the rain while reading Tolstoy. Building schools for crippled children in Detroit. Practicing my gangsta rap. One of these is true, Home-slice.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I drove over 450 miles through one of the largest multi-state winter storms in U.S. history to surprise my gf on her birthday, while the interstate was officially closed.

Teach, Learn, Share

I love teaching percussion.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Anyone who hosts me will have one grateful guest. It is a privilege to be invited into one's home. I can imagine spending hours sharing life stories and learning from our experiences.

Also, I love playing guitar or drums if music is a part of the atmosphere of the home.
