CURRENT MISSION

Looking for a couch in Lille after a friend's friend no longer has room. Otherwise: to meet new people and practice my french.

ABOUT ME

Playable instruments: upright-bass, guitar, piano, mandolin, banjo, ukelele. I can also play "Hot Crossed Buns" on the recorder and clarinet.

I occasionally play with a Buddy Holly cover band.

I love to learn and teach. If we can play music together, even better! I'm also a big nerd when it comes to video games, computers, sic-fi, books...you name it.

PHILOSOPHY

"Why do I live my life?" I dunno. I'm here? Might as well do something interesting between two great silences.

I have two big goals in life: get a chance to do a TedTalk, and be a panelist or guest on Wait! Wait! Don't Tell Me.

Dlaczego jestem na Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

In couch surfing? I'm new, but I've traveled a bit, and hosted a few travelers and exchange students.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

The best couch surfing experiences are when you get to know your hosts/travelers: Playing a never to be finished game of risk, drinking a family member's "l'eau de vie," sharing meals—all those great things.

Jedna niesamowita rzecz, którą zrobiłem(-am)

I've wandered around the Fête de la Musique in Paris. I've sang in an artificial tree with 300 singers. I missed out on a trip to play on the great wall of China. I've played in a band with Gary Busey—you know, that one guy in all those movies I can't think of right now, but he was on Celebrity Apprentice so that's what most people know him from right now.
