CURRENT MISSION

**Update** I apologize if I can't get back to everyone. I get a lot of emails. I leave town often, have an ever-changing schedule, and am super spontaneous with most activities and adventures.
And because of the nature of traveling and the many last minute cancellations I get I can't commit to everyone.
Also, I can generally tell if you're just looking for a free place to crash. Sorry, I'm looking to connect with my fellow humans. However, feed me and we're golden, haha!
Oh, and I won't generally respond if your profile isn't filled out.

ABOUT ME

I'm a free-spirit very interested in the many forms of self-expression/realization; I write music, create art, animal/nature lover, and have an insatiable thirst for knowledge and wisdom. I appear calm on the surface, smile, and laugh often but my soul is quite restless so I thrive off of learning or creating on a daily basis. A renaissance man.

PHILOSOPHY

Keep life simple and smile often. Life's too short to let yourself get tangled in knots, but when you do, just breathe.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I will cook, clean, take out trash, fix almost anything, or do what I can to show my appreciation for your hospitality. I'm super clean, respectful, and conscious of others' feelings. Please be the same if staying here.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
EXPERIENCE

Mostly awesome souls, but a few moochers looking for a bed only. CS has worked really well outside the U.S., haven't tried it within yet.

Interests

I play drums in a few bands and recently went back to school to study art, but my biggest passion at the moment is rock climbing and cutting hair! Also, hiking, mtn. biking, surfing, sailing, archery, and many more. Also fascinated by shamanism, dreaming, tribal drumming, karma, sacred geometry, ancient civilizations, eastern philosophy, esoteric knowledge, the mysterious, and the unexplainable.

Foreign films, art films, and documentaries. But my tv is usually off.

Spiritual/historical/autobiographical books--I love reading!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
