I've had an interesting life full of unexpected twists & turns from the beginning. Feel extremely fortunate to be alive in this world full of wonder. A jack of all trades odd jobs kinda guy who prefers earning a living in uncommon ways. These days I drive for Lyft (adding Uber soon) along with some other transportation services, do network marketing of a fancy water filtration machine, keep an eye on the Craigslist "odd jobs" section & work for friends. My passions lie in music & comedy, my goal is to one day turn enough of a dollar that all monetary needs are met by one or both of these endeavors. I've sung in a garage rock band, acted on film & got my feet wet in stand-up, improv & sketch comedy. Dancing is my favorite thing to do.

Have severe mold allergies & taking medicine to get lots of mold bio-toxin out of my body. My only requirement when it comes to a place to stay is that it be mold/water damage free. Have not ever used couch surfing & hope to start soon. Since I don't have any references on here thru the site can link you to my airbnb reviews, have used the site lots for mainly stays of a month or longer & all hosts left feedback.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

People are more interesting to me than anything else & I absolutely love making new friends. Will have a place of my own again soon where couch surfers will be able to stay, plan to begin hosting soon after that. I figure that individuals who are kind enough to allow others in their home for free are the sort of person that is definitely worth meeting, so its a totally awesome way to make great friends. Several of my buddies host & use couch surfing to travel. My friend Suzette (linked to her on here) hosts all the time & has met many interesting people thru couch surfing, her tales of very positive & interesting experience have led me to give this site a try.

kept going & didn't give up despite immense adversity numerous points in my life. secondary to that, skydiving in Tennessee years ago was super!

What I Can Share with Hosts

I'm always cooking & making tasty things to eat, would really like to discover what my host's taste buds prefer & prepare things they'd enjoy. It doesn't matter if my host has a busy schedule such that they're not around for meal times, can have things ready to go for them to take to work for lunch or a late night snack. Chores & cleaning around the house is no bother to me, actually enjoy mopping for instance & would like to help with those sorts of things. Can teach how to play several musical instruments & about music in general. Having good conversations & sharing our lives with one another. If I have my car with me, would be into helping hosts out with transportation. Allowing me to stay is a great kindness & its important to me that I repay it in any possible way.
