CURRENT MISSION

I love to experience foreign places from a local's point of view. It's so much more laid back, fun, real & interesting.

ABOUT ME

I've lived all over Los Angeles for the past 9 years - from the beach (my favorite) to the valley to the east side and even the woods north of Malibu. I've been lucky enough to sustain myself by being a dog-sitter for the past two years... kind of crazy. It's a fun job that allows me to work on my music pretty much full time. Just finished my 1st CD... if I stay at your place I'll give you one! :)

PHILOSOPHY

Something positive can be found in anything if you look well enough.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

In years past (before this website existed) I've hosted a traveling Brit in West Hollywood, CA - he stayed for about a week. Hosted a Spaniard in Santa Monica, CA for one night. Lived in a house in Echo Park, CA where we would have guests on the couch most nights - that got to be a bit much... Took a road trip across the US with my best friend in 2000 - I think we may have paid for a hotel once in that 2 week trip. Meeting new people is fun!

Through the website, I stayed a few weeks meeting awesome people and having a great time in Paris & Rome.

兴趣

Playing music, writing, enjoying a peaceful morning with coffee, reading, green trees, having a lot of time to just sit and think. Enjoying life - it is beautiful.

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

Two things!
I went on a fan boat ride in the bayous of Louisiana.... it was one of the coolest thing I've ever done. The guy driving the boat was grabbing alligators by the tail & driving really fast - it's exciting just thinking about it.
Also - my friend is a helicopter pilot & took me up (on one of his training flights) over Los Angeles with no doors on the helicopter. We went over the canyons, along the Malibu/Santa Monica coastline, through the buildings of downtown LA, up to the Hollywood Sign - it was truly a great experience.

教，学，和分享

I travel with my ukulele - I can teach you a couple chords... that's all you need to write a song! I'm also a very good listener & I'm interested in learning your story...
