I am a self employed traveler, in America I sell japanese toys for a living. When I am traveling, I make music and write about whatever comes to mind. currently trying to write a middle grade book series for kids.
I play several instruments, two of which I have on me at almost all times, my ukulele and my ocarina. I am usually a solo traveler but I love to meet new people and pick up friends along the way.

I am mostly an herbivore but I have been going to japan so much lately that I have to still eat fish sometimes haha.
I absolutely love going on hikes, runs, any last minute adventures.
I love to play board games, card games, or video games.
I am an extrovert and love to talk about music, movies, books, Psychology, history, passions, conservation, futurism, art, and whatever seems interesting at the time.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I adore people, I love exploring and I thrive when I am indulged in different cultures. I hope to meet many like minded individuals and fellow travelers as well as hospitable and wonderful human beings. I feel like I can be helpful rather than just mooching off of a free place to stay. I can play music or cook or help out around the house with no issue. I want every meeting to be mutually beneficial to both sides.
