ABOUT ME

I love music and art, and people and water. I am at home in the mountains and in the concert hall. I want to hear you sing.

Deeply committed to learning, loving, and living.
Serious
Goofy
Intense

PHILOSOPHY

How can I put this into a blurb? Learn, grow, challenge yourself. Keep your finger to the pulse of your spirit, your interests, your loves and relationships, and nurture yourself and those around you. Mend or trim the wilted leaves, and feed that which aught to flourish. Give like you drink water, and drink lots of water.

Why do I live my life? What are my thoughts and feelings?

Ask me sometime.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

If you want to stay with me, I can happily make you a bed from blankets and sheets and such, but I don't really have a couch! I stay in a one-bedroom apt., and there's just not a great guest-space, though I have hosted friends and family on the floor in the living area.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I recently hosted my brother...

A few years ago, I gained some experience couch-surfing for a few months, but I didn't take advantage of the site, just met people in the Texas towns in which I found myself at the time. I learned some things to do and not to do, and about myself and others along the way.

Interests

It would be more efficient to say what doesn't interest me... which is not much.

I am capable of engaging most activities, people, and places in such a manner that I both give and receive positively.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Sunset on the Grand Canyon,
Playing Mozart in Baden,
Wandering around amongst the mountains and sky

Teach, Learn, Share

I have some formal education in music, and may therefore shed some light on the sonic realms... so to speak.

I listen. I rub shoulders. I sing, play, and listen some more.
