CURRENT MISSION

To find the most intelligent and thought provoking people I can find.

ABOUT ME

I am a 33 year old artist seeking to embark upon a journey of self-discovery in the hopes of becoming a citizen of the world. I have spent the majority of the last 13 years working in restaurants and bars while pursuing a music career and writing a series of autobiographical novels and short stories. One day I hope to become a world-class author. I am deeply interested in linguistics, anthropology, philosophy of religion, theology, sociology, history and economic theory. I am also an avid reader and writer, and hope that one day I may produce works that can be valuable to generations.

PHILOSOPHY

The most important story in a persons life is the story that they tell themselves about themself.
Treat other people the way that they want to be treated.
Leave it better than you found it, people included.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I am interested in learning as much as i can about different cultures, and have much of myself to donate.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've surfed some couches in my earlier days and found that the best surfing experiences that I had were with people around the same age with similar interests. I found that staying with new people made me realize how much I miss out on every day that I keep myself isolated in my own little world!
