About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Explore South Asia with my amazing partner Caitlin and learn about myself in the process.

ABOUT ME

I am from San Francisco, California, currently living in Quito, Ecuador. I believe that music is the quickest connection to the soul. I play drums in a jazz fusion band and love to both introduce people to, and discover, new music. I love to read and learn and experience new things and places; I hope to see as many different places in the world, and meet as many people as possible. I like to laugh until it hurts.

PHILOSOPHY

Live for others. Personal gain should only be that of the mind.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I participate in the CS2 project by sharing my home with others, and in turn, I hope to be a respectful guest of others.

Most of my housemates are couch surfers and I have had many couch surfers stay at my house. I have also couchsurfed around South America and Europe. Couchsurfing has always been a positive experience.
