ABOUT ME

please be sure to read my profile if you would like to surf with me! thanks!
i am a rawfoodist, musician, juggler in a nutshell. i devote much of my time to music: playing jazz piano, singing freely, rocking the blues on the guitar and hacking away at the flute. Im a jack of all trades: fire juggling,unicycle,slack line, rolla bolla is my newest challenge, balloon twisting, general clowning. My goal is to be able to sustain my travels with street performing and to pass clubs with every juggler i can find. I'm into keeping my body as clean as possible and exploring avenues of health and sustained energy. I'm interested in keeping my energy as high as possible to better my performance as a human being.But not taking it too seriously.Positivity is my forte!

PHILOSOPHY

don't take life too seriously and you will be happy, when you are happy, life doesn't seem that serious.seriously.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Wow, my first true experience of couchsurfing was truly amazing, san Francisco, sleeping on the beach, someone tells me about a couch surfing meeting at some coffee bar, my friend dan and i go and see hundreds of travelers and potential hosts!whoa, a fire show ensues(what else do you do with a crowd of people but give them a show?) through that met people that opened up their houses and lives and totally made my experience in usa, made lasting connections with 'strangers' and some damn good friends. Yebo!

Music, Movies, and Books

i'm not going to list the thousands of movies books and cds i like so i will attempt the impossible of singling out one of each. Warning! this is not to be taken as a generalization!

music: the hardest of them all... the new academics (the apple) best south african band ever!

movies: the X men

books: earthing> clint ober.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

busked up and down the west coast! set myself on fire in an impromptu human torch act (not doing that again, made my best hat ever) making people laugh is the most amazing thing ever

Teach, Learn, Share

I have a wealth of useless stuff to share! tonnes of 3 ball tricks and hat moves, good tips for contact jugglers, passing patterns out the wazoo, a couple of really crappy magic tricks that work well on 6 yr olds and some solid basic balloons.

music theory? I can tell you how the chords string together and what makes the motion of the musical ocean tick...to a certain degree. I can play a bunch of instruments at a basic level and some of them at a level that might be considered listenable and am always willing to share music knowledge.

Via osmosis i have acquired a lot of factoiods about food and such ( my brother and sister are alternative healers)

as for what I would want to learn... take the above and turn it 180 degrees, I would be into sharing skills in all those areas and language, spanish and french are going to be my next challenge.

France, Thailand, United States
