CURRENT MISSION

Do good and good will follow

ABOUT ME

From the time I was at an early age, I've been seeing the world with family and friends. Having covered that much ground I like to think that I've absorbed a little bit of the culture from where ever the wind takes me. I've been a resident in 5 states. California, Texas, Minnesota, Wisconsin and currently Hawaii. Raised in a music-centric family, everyone played an instrument. So I've been playing percussion, marimba is my favorite, for 16 years now.

PHILOSOPHY

Don't sweat the small stuff. Someone's got it worse than you.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I've been hosting surfers for over a year now. I've had nothing but positive experiences. I have not personally taken advantage of surfing on others couches yet. Maui has a lot to offer.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've really enjoyed everyone that has surfed my couch. Some of them will be life long friends. Two surfers ended up just moving out here they liked it so much.
