About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Music. Writing. Traveling. Learning. Exploring.

ABOUT ME

Life's sweet. I like to read, speak, create, experience new things; society could use a little work and I feel living as freely as possible is the best means to influence it.

PHILOSOPHY

I would need at least 300 pages to explain that...I'm working on it.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

This is new to me but I have heard many amazing things about the community. Couch surfing has suggested enough times I had to start an account. Hotels are expensive and detrimental. Internationally companies like Mariott and Hilton rob from locals money, real estate, and culture. Hostels can be a lot of fun but I have grown tired of them as well; the requirement to spend money and be a consumer while traveling regularly haunts me. I've met too many amazing people in my travels who spend next to nothing to continue squandering income. These individuals have time and again proven to me that the less money that's involved the richer and more adventurous the experience is.

I am not in a position to offer a couch yet but I am eager to sleeping on couches (or floors) and meeting wonderful persons.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

All freelance...I'm excited to use CS as a stepping stone to more organized and better planned traveling.

Interests

Philosophy. Creative Arts. Books. Existence. Music (metal, jazz, indie, psych, anything with intelligence and bare, gritted artistry). Food. Sustainability. Sticking it to the man. Not letting fear, nor money, inhibit my adventures.
