CURRENT MISSION

To enjoy the world and all its beer!

ABOUT ME

I'm a small town boy, living in a lonely world!

Currently living in Santa Barbara. I like to spend my time hanging out with friends, drinking wine and spirits of various types, playing and writing music, and just having fun!

I have a degree in Economics (after studying Music, Computer Science, the Italian language, and more would-be majors) from the University of California. I've recently been swooned by the depth in flavor of Vietnamese food. I climb big rocks and have a fear of heights.

PHILOSOPHY

I'd like to know and embrace all the unique and tolerant cultures of the world. I believe they all have something beautiful to share.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I love Radiohead, Sigur Ros, A Perfect Circle, The Shins, Incubus, Nina Simone, Feist, Rage Against The Machine, Bob Dylan, Led Zeppelin, The Rolling Stones, Maná, and way too many to list or even recall.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Played completely on-the-spot-made-up songs for them--and had them enjoy it!
