I'm an apprentice artisan; my gig is traveling to art fairs in many cities selling leaves in boxes. I'm also an aspiring Court Reporter. This month I've been doing a lot of yard work. I spend my free time (which is most of it) watching soccer, practicing stenography, meditating in brief spells, and watering the plants.

PHILOSOPHY

"This is your life and you do what you want to do, just don't hurt nobody, unless of course they ask you."

"For pure will, unassuaged of purpose, delivered from the lust of result, is every way perfect."

seeing the self in all things and all things in the self

representing those who think nothing is everything

Perché sono iscritto su Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Open to surfing opportunities in the near future in places my job takes me. May host sporadically.

I started hosting in the summer of 2007 and met wonderful people from Brazil, Missouri and New York. I am into anything that brings people together on a personal level, and I love the idea of a global network of travelers and hosts helping to make the world more accessible and friendly.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have been hosted in Kansas City, Paris, Raleigh, San Francisco, Oregon, Toronto, Montreal, Brussels, and elsewhere. I have hosted many times, encountering many lovely individuals.

Una cosa incredibile che ho fatto

staying awake for 24 hours driving along the pacific coast highway

a giant atom

tiny information housed in my brain

Insegna, impara, condividi

Maybe you can teach me something? When the snow falls I may come see you. If you play music, bring your music-thing!

The snow is melted!
The snow is falling!
