60 year old male living a lifelong dream of busking across (around) the US with my 12 pound dog, seeing sights I've never seen, visiting old friends, making new friends, and making my way as an itinerant musician.

Por que estou no Couchsurfing?

There is much in the US I have never seen; things like the Grand Canyon, Yellowstone, Yosemite, Key West, the Desert, and on and on.

While I'm still young enough and healthy enough, I am traveling for as long as my earning capacity as a busker will allow. There is no extra money, no Plan B. If it ain't working or I'm not having fun, back to Indiana I go.
