I see reality as inherently divine, and live to give service for the uplifting of mankind. More literally, I'm a writer and an artist, but I also love to cook, take photos, and enjoy the present moment to its fullest. I love meeting people, hearing their stories, learning of their perspective, and connecting. Through my output, I want to help build the intellectual and creative backbone of a transcultural movement.

Perché sono iscritto su Couchsurfing

I'll be endeavoring on an extended nomadic journey next summer. I'll graduate this December, and I've known it for years now that taking up a fundamentally different lifestyle (like traveling the continent, meeting countless people, and experiencing things that language fails to express) would be a necessary step in expanding my spiritual and intellectual awareness. I want to see humanity, and experience what it is to be alive right here, right now.

Una cosa incredibile che ho fatto

Produced, organized, and hosted a mini music festival that i called Fieldstock. I did it two years in a row, and the second year there were 11 music artists performing. Somewhere around 600 people came, and I was able to pay every artist a fair amount.

Insegna, impara, condividi

I've been studying French for two years now, and I'm getting pretty decent. I could at least help get you started with learning it. I've read a lot of books, especially classics, and I can tell you all about several Shakespeare plays (thanks Professor Candido). I've also been drawing all of my life, so I can help people learn how to draw very easily. I'd love to give whatever constructive input I can on anything anyone would ask me for.

I'm always learning, and I'm always wanting to learn more.

Cosa posso offrire ai padroni di casa

Materialistically, on a nomadic journey I don't plan to have much more than money, clothing, a backpack full of supplies, and maybe a tent or something. Pretty much all of that could be be shared to an extent. I'm an open person, and I strive to be selfless. I intuitively feel great empathy for others. If you have any questions then please do let me know. I won't mind it at all.
