CURRENT MISSION

Inner peace. Musical awesomeness. Eye contact. Grow as an individual, grow as a part of the universe.

ABOUT ME

Crystal blue waters make me happy. I am totally in love with water, especially the ocean. I love to swim, dive, canoe, surf, sail, the list goes on. I love mountains. I love to ski, hike, sleep under the stars, drink from mountain springs, admire and climb trees. I am a musician. I am a singer, guitarist, bassist, and clarinetist. I love to cook and bake. I love to eat and drink. I love ultimate frisbee. I love fireflies. I love big powerful thunderstorms. I love bicycles. I love travel. I love to stretch and focus on my breathing.

PHILOSOPHY

For me there is only the traveling on the paths that have heart, on any path that may have heart. There I travel, and the only worthwhile challenge for me is to traverse its full length. And there I travel—looking, looking, breathlessly.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I am here to spread love of life. I have a couch.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Couchsurfing can take so many different forms, but it is always great because of the generosity and selflessness of the act, on both sides.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

My very good friends Bob and Ally have a 7 year old daughter named Jane. She was choking on a cherry pit on the beach last year and I helped her expel it out of her trachea with some abdominal thrusts (Heimlich). It all happened in the span of 20 seconds.

Teach, Learn, Share

I know a lot about music.
I know a little about the heart, figuratively and literally.
I am good for conversation about history, philosophy, travel, science...
