About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Life

ABOUT ME

I don't know how to do these things, but I'll say this: I'm a good dude (whatever that means), friendly and curious about new experiences. Artist, musician, photographer, drinker, reluctant dancer, talker, blah blah blah.

Just say hello or I will and we'll take it from there. I'm pretty easy.

PHILOSOPHY

I have no desire to settle and it pains me when people I love find excuses to do so. I want as much of life as I can but I struggle sometimes juggling that with a desire to be dependable to the people and things I care about.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Working on it.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Had some folks stay with me a few years ago and again more recently, but I haven't stayed anywhere yet. Haphazardly put this profile together last-minute for a trip I barely planned for. Time to leave Philly though so here's to an adventure.

Interests

I'm a screen printer and musician and photographer, none or all of which I could conceivably do for the rest of my life. I'm also open to the idea that I haven't found what I want to do for the rest of my life. The world's an interesting place after all. I've scored films and played music across the country. I've released two albums and been nominated for an AVN award for music (ha, look it up if you don't know). I'm full of ideas and sometimes I execute them to personal perfection. I'm also tired of trying to brag. That's all.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Sitting on a beach in Thailand only to realize years later that it had been destroyed in a tsunami. The crypts of the Cappuchine (sp.?) monks in Italy. Bones and skulls everywhere. The realization that I was once just a child that thought he would be something completely different and understanding that the world could have taken me anywhere but it took me to where I am now and can take me any number of places from here on.

Countries I’ve Visited
