Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

i am currently traveling all summer, in september i will return to Oakland, California, and at that point i would love to host people!

Interests

I am an artist of many different mediums. Mainly painting and image creation, My focus is painting large walls, i also love working in a studio making drawings and paintings. I am currently studying printmaking at california college of art in Oakland, California.

I love to explore new cities,look under bridges, paint/ explore abandond buildings, or weird manmade structures you must explore to find. I also love spending time in wilderness, hiking, swimming in rivers and waterfalls, making sandwhiches with a pocketknife...

I can have a perfectly good time walking around amelessly with a really good person just talking shit all day, or just hanging out and not leaving the house just doing something creative.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

losing my best friend in a car accident years ago, left me awestruck, now and forever on cherishing the relationships I have with others, and valuing the real connections that do occur, and not bumming onthe ones that dont!

waking up everyday to feel thankful for my life!
