About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To boldly go where no art or music has gone before & visit everywhere I can before I get too hungry

ABOUT ME

Art is something that hides in all of us. Unlocking the creative side is the key. Travels help get that insperation needed. Meeting people from around the world helps one gain a new perspective on life. Music brings the muse out in the open to inspire. I am a nomad that has been trying not to let life pass me by. Reach for the sky and never let your dreams die. Oh, I'm male 5'11", brown hair & eyes, like adidas, mexican food, and wear a size 10 shoe.

PHILOSOPHY

Life is way too short so live life with no regrets. I know to think with my heart and see everything in the eyes of a child. Not to take anything for granted and try not to get too drunk thinking about why I'm here.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I can only offer advice on what I seem to know. Help other see my side of this wonderful world. I am new here so I can do whatever I can to help a fellow world surfer. I am on the rugged Oregon coast so bring a camera.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Mostly staying with friends or pulling my own weight anywhere I go. I have stayed in too many hotels with that sterile envionment, and too many hostels. Liked staying in B&Bs meeting families and making me feel at home.

Interests

People and their creations. Making people laugh and sharing in good times & making the most in lean times. Art, music, food, and maybe a good beer. Tattooing also seems to be another form of art I enjoy. They carry my art everywhere they travel.

Music, Movies, and Books

Too many to list. Queens of the Stoneage, Beethoven, Social Distortion...Hmmm, Road Warrior, King of Hearts, Blade Runner, Eraserhead... The last book I read was a Lonely Planet travel guide to Cambodia. But I like mysteries, very old classics like the Iliad or a Spanner in the Works...

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Again too many to list. Hanging out with Roos in the outback or living in Korea for 2 years as an teacher. Or all the smiles I saw while riding my bike around Ireland.

Teach, Learn, Share

To be safe and careful while doing what one enjoys the most.
