About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Meet people where they're at.

ABOUT ME

I BIKE BIKE BIKE and play my drum, make faces at kids and love everyone. I try to be a poet but I don't know how to flow it so I dance real badly, I'll dance with you gladly, cook stories for breakfast, I'm a little reckless, I respect every word you put forth without pretense, and maybe something rhymes with that but I'm not too uptight about sounding right so long as no lies come through I ring true and you can ring me too.

PHILOSOPHY

I'm gonna leave this one to the experts. I am not as blessed with words as them...

"I fight for love every day of my life
And every day of my life
I fight for love."
-Traditional Methods-

"And yes, I recognize the irony that the very system I oppose affords me the luxury of biting the hand that feeds. But that's exactly why priviledged fucks like me should feel obliged to whine and kick and scream- until everyone has everything they need."
-Propagandhi-

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I don't believe in OUR house or MY food or HIS jacket, there are plenty of houses and foods and jackets for everyone.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

My couch is your couch! I stayed with a wonderful woman in LA who shares my name. I have been on the road the last month staying with friends. I've also hosted a great number of travelers, friends and strangers who become friends. I love the whole idea. Love it!

I watched a sunrise from the top of a cell phone tower in Botswana. But you would have done the same...
