CURRENT MISSION

Beats!

ABOUT ME

I'm a musician from the forests and shorelines of Coastal Maine now living in the bustling metropolis of New York City, though I'm living off the beaten path, out in Red Hook, Brooklyn. I'm currently drumming in seven different groups and starting to get some music teaching work around the city. Loving life here right now.

PHILOSOPHY

Enrich the world in whatever way you can do it best. Compassion and respect.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I joined couchsurfing when I visited my friend Sanna in Barcelona last Spring. She introduced me to the traveler's lifestyle and I really liked the philosophy behind the site.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I stayed with my friend Sanna for a week at her apartment in Barcelona and during that time we made a two day trip to Valencia and couch surfed with some great folks who were studying there at the time. I've also hosted many friends and friends of friends on my futon at my place here in Brooklyn.
