CURRENT MISSION

See the world, be creative, meet interesting people.

ABOUT ME

I'm a guy who likes edge. I'm a laugher. I recently changed careers to social work. I have organized a couple decent-sized audio art festivals. I've worked and volunteered in public, community, and scholastic media both offline and online since 1995. I've lived in New York until recently, the Boston area from 2002-2009, in a college town in Nebraska for seven years, and on my home farm for my first eighteen years. I listen to music often. I like many foods and drinks.

PHILOSOPHY

I try to treat people well, not take myself too seriously, and keep my sense of humor sharp at all times. But those things rarely work.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Surfed, open to having surfers soon.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I put friends and bands up in my apartments whenever I get the chance. I've slept on many hard floors in my day. I prefer a bed now. I recently moved to Eastern Europe and can start hosting later this year.
