I'm a traveling writer originally from Texas. I've seen and experienced 44 states! I don't really care if I get all 50, I just want to see all the majesty I can. I work wherever I go, and write poems :)

I love meeting people and exploring new places. My favorite thing in the world is mountains! Sunsets are pretty good too... Oh my... Sunsets in the mountains!!! Yum!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Couchsurfing is dope. I've meet a ton of awesome people through this app. It's a great way to connect with people, share our talents and resources, and have some life to share with one another.

Traveling into peoples homes is the best way to get to experience new places and people!

Interests

My most relevant interest is travel. I've always had the itch to get out and experience life. Now I'm doing it.

I play a bunch of instruments, sing, read a ton, and write, write, write!

Music, Movies, and Books

I'm very open to all of it!

I love Glenn Hansard, the classic grunge thing, and punk. TV on the Radio is my favorite band.

Beats get me. Kerouac, Ginsberg, Burroughs, Snyder, etc. These are my brothers!

My favorite poet at the moment is Ron Loewinsohn :)

Movies are cool! I'm into them! Let's watch one, maybe? Don't spend as much time with movies these days...hmmm...

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Just one? Okay.

Camped at the Great Salt Lake, watched the stars, saw them shoot, woke up to the most amazing sunrise over the mountains that stained the water pink, and spent the day floating and cooking yummy food with friends!

Teach, Learn, Share

There's always an art movement that's changing the world. Let's talk about that.

I can read a poem to you and sing a song. I love hearing people's stories and sharing my own.

I can teach you some piano or guitar if you're interested!

What I Can Share with Hosts

Okay, this is the best part of couch surfer! I'm neat af. I love keeping a clean space. I always clean anything I use, and usually something else around, so that everything is cleaner than I found it! Lol.

I'm also really flexible, with scheduling, and respectful of your time/space/resources.

I'm open to connecting with you. Not just small talk, but real connection. I'll show up, and if you do too, we might grow. 😊
