Poet and budding musician seeking friends and collaborators. I'm a kind and respectful guest that listens attentively and shares honestly. Moving to Berlin, seeking opportunities to perform, collaborate, and make profound friendships. Would love to get to know you, play music together, and get to know the place you call home.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

For a couple of reasons. Here's a list that describes my wildest dreams:

- to find musical hosts
- jam the night away
- if those hosts don't make music, but some other art, add that to collaboration
- before you know it, we have 3-chord songs and a multimedia experience
- share that work
- have a beer at the end of the day
- repeat

Music, Movies, and Books

This year, it’s Nick Cave and Brian Eno. They’ve stuck with me for awhile.

Most of the time, I’m reading Bob Dylan’s lyrics, Leonard Cohen’s meditations, and poetry anthologies written by artists and musicians from the last century.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Sold all my things in Providence, Rhode Island, and bought a one-way ticket to Australia. With a visa, savings, and a power-drill, remodeled a van and lived in it. Spent nearly half a year wandering in the desert, where I climbed mountains and loved someone dearly.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach: drawing, painting, 3D modeling
I am learning: musical collaboration
Would love to share: hilarious stories

What I Can Share with Hosts
