About Me

I am searching for what it's all about. Who isn't? Discovering new places, new friends, new experiences, new foods, beers, cultures, and customs.

Life is all about having awesome experiences. Sure, I could have just stayed in one place, earned some money, bought a house, retired to Florida and died miserable, but that's now what I'm here for.

I hope you're exploring this area to have fun, see things in a new light, gain perspective, and realize that there's a reality outside of your own that is both worthwhile and a ton of fun!

That's what lead me to writing, traveling, meeting crazy new couchsurfer friends and settling in SE Asia.

If you're traveling through, then give me a ring.

My favorite thing? Thanks for asking! That's kind of you.

I love playing the guitar, drums, and bass. I tried the piano but fuck that. I love exploring new places, trying new things, getting in weird and uncomfortable spots, and crashing in homes with interesting and unknown people.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

There's a difference between traveling the world and TRAVELING THE WORLD. One way is just seeing the same things in each place. The latter is the right way to do it.

Delving into the way that locals live, and seeing things through there eyes. I want to meet like-minded people, get some beers, have some fun, and live while we're alive.

couchsurfing is a great way to meet locals and to host travelers looking to do the same. I'm happy to offer my couch, floor, or bed to any weary people making their way through Thailand.

Cheers!

Interests

Aside from traveling, writing, or working with my clients, I

enjoy playing the guitar- I've been playing my whole life, so maybe I could play something for you!

Learning Italian- Sto imparando Italiano. Tu?

Playing basketball- I bring my basketball shoes with me on the road just in case I need them....

I love all kinds of music, and enjoy reading about history, culture, politics, and sociology.

Also...dogs! I love taking care of dogs. If you have one, I can take him/her for walks and watch them while you're out.

Music, Movies, and Books

Books- lord of the rings; guns, germs, and steel; freakonomics; look who's back;

Music- as a musician, it is my duty to love all kinds of music; however, my favorites are American blues, thrash metal, classic rock, celtic guitar, paganini, R&B, hip hop, etc

Movies- anything Tarantino and any terrible sci-fi movie. Movies like "giant mutant space spider vs zombie vacuum cleaner" are my personal guilty pleasures.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've seen 45 states!

I drove from New York City to Las Vegas and back in just a few days

these aren't really amazing, though. :/

Teach, Learn, Share

I love teaching people the guitar. I'd be happy to give some lessons!

ti insegno alcune cose d'Italiano

I can share my travel experiences, my knowledge of the cool things in Prague(I've lived here 3 years now), or my bussines wisdom(which is very limited :)!)

I can also help people break into the freelance writing business or SEO business.

Entrepreneurial experience, freelance writing experience, traveling experiences, maybe hosting connections in other cities.
