About Me

CURRENT MISSION

getting to tierra del fuego, chile.

ABOUT ME

I suppose I'm 23 now. I write stories for a small magazine in Nashville. I play music and I am a huge geek. I sell computers for a living at the moment.

I'm planning a trip to the Southern tip of South America right now. I leave Sept 20th 2009. We'll be driving the entirety in a pickup truck. Crazy.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I hosted a hitchhiker at my house over the summer. We had some important conversations about the state of fear in American hearts, mostly in regards to hitchhiking. I got to show him a great concert and we had an enormous party on our warehouse roof with music and wine and the lot. I am only now embarking on my own surf.
