I live in Burlington, VT. (a great place to check out if you get a chance!). I grew up in Connecticut but have come to Vermont almost every year of my life. My ancestors were pioneers here and I have family here on my father's side. I love being on Lake Champlain and being in the mountains. The quality of life here is good. Except for the arctic type winters, I love it here.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm going on a trip this summer to Missouri. I will be staying on a 310 acre nature preserve and helping to build a sustainable living community. My bus leaves me in Chicago for a night so I'm looking for a place to sleep for one night. I'm stoked to go to Chicago, I've never been and I love new places so it should be fun.

Interests

I paint, draw, write, build, create and try to express myself in all kinds of different ways. I love skateboarding on the halfpipe at the Burton factory and I spend the majority of my summer between there and the Lake.

Music, Movies, and Books

I read a lot of non-fiction, history, philosophy, mysticism, astrology and spirituality. I like sci-fi movies and documentaries. I am always listening to music, a lot of underground hip-hop and hard rock and classic rock.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I am starting a fundraiser by donating 5% of my sales from my art to non-profit, charitable organizations that are teaching kids about sustainable living.
