CURRENT MISSION

genral mayhem and random acts of chaos. erm... i mean... yea. that's it.

ABOUT ME

The short: Full time art student busy blowing the pants of the menswear and textiles departments of my school. Part time production assistant and dancer for a Butoh performance group. Busy busy busy...
AND
These things: changing, breathing, watching, listening. forever learning and improving upon who i am. Seize the moment when it drives me. take my time walking home. Say yes. feel music bounce between my sternum and spine then move as it winds its way towards my fingers and toes. Listen to the world as it speaks. watch the traffic on the interstate rushing under the overpass. wonder at the city around me and dream of the outside worlds. Think about all the possibilities and articulate when the moment catches me. Save my words for when they matter most. Never lie and do my best not to bring harm to others. Rolling with the blows and embracing life as it happens. Loving every moment. EVery Moment. The good, bad, amazing and ugly.

PHILOSOPHY

Life's journy is not to arrive safely in a well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, totally worn out, shouting, "Holy Shit...What a ride!"

Warum ich bei Couchsurfing bin

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Mah roomie actually handles most of the surfing that happens on our couch- but I've been known to play too.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Surfed: I gave the keys to my apartment to a pair of guys who showed up past midnight at the 24 hour cafe I worked at. They were biking cross country and had just ridden 60 miles: half of it in the rain.
Surfing- An awesome kyaker picked me up off the highway in Oregon and let me sleep under the tree in his yard with a sunrise veiw of Mt. Hood. Beautiful.
