About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Surfing during a life transition to minimalism while debating internally if conventional housing is how I want to live.

ABOUT ME

I am 30 and have spent the last few years travelling around the west coast in my super-tiny home. My passion is playing music, and I often busk to make some extra cash if I am not holding down a full time job to save up for my next expedition.

PHILOSOPHY

Live in happiness. Choose happiness. Be happiness.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

The real revolution will be love.
My greatest satisfaction comes from contributing to humanity. My career goals are focused on making the world a better place and I strongly feel like humanitarian ideal is at the core of couchsurfing. Let us bridge cultural and social divides, spend time engaging one another and weave a fabric of human connection.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Stayed with friends around the country. Usually stayed for 3 days. Loved living out of my backpack and having no ties.

Interests

I enjoy playing and recording music of my own creation, painting (acrylic only), reading books written by those far more intelligent than myself and doing my best to write my own ideas down in meaningful ways.
I love the outdoors, as they were my childhood playground. Growing up in Utah had its fair share of perks, like insect-free and snake-free camping, skiing, alpine longboarding, hiking in the mountains, desert, plains, and national parks, rock climbing on all sorts of terrain just to name a few.
