I'm an artist (installation/sculpture/assemblage) www.derek-faust.com , also a furniture maker and fan of motorcycles. I pretty much love adventure and learning as much as possible. I am very polite and respectful and love to share experiences and stories over good food and drink.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I like to meet people when I travel instead of being hold up in a hotel. Being an artist it is also helpful to ease travel costs. I want to meet folks and see places and learn things I otherwise wouldn't on a more traditional path.
