CURRENT MISSION

Live life to the fullest and make epic music.

ABOUT ME

I am a very easy going and open minded person. I love the outdoors and a wide variety of sports/activities. I am passionate about music and love playing all styles. I enjoy traveling and taking in new experiences. I love meeting new people and seeing life from different perspectives. I am a very optimistic and positive person. I love deep conversations or a night on the town with friends. Cooking all types of food all types of ways is another passion. I try my best to get the most out of life every day.

PHILOSOPHY

I believe that we create our own reality. The choice to be happy or unhappy is always within our control. One of the simple keys to life is to just EMBRACE. No matter what is happening, just embrace it for what it is. Try to see the beauty in everything. This philosophy makes life the vivid experience it was meant to be. Inspire and be inspired. People with good energy will always find each other. If your not having fun, your doing it wrong.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have had nothing but good experiences. My hosts/guests and I always learn from each other and take away unforgettable experiences. I find that providing a little help around the house, chipping in with food and drinks, and always being clean and respectful makes happy hosts that are always willing to have you back.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I have been very fortunate to have lived and traveled in some amazing places. There are too many amazing experiences to list so I'll save that for when we meet.

Teach, Learn, Share

I am happy to help with English, unfortunately this is my only fluent language, so I am eager to work on my German, Spanish, French, etc. Would love to learn more and share musical knowledge. Travel discussions and location tips are another favorite topic. I love to share and learn about philosophical subjects as well. I am an open book and a sponge for knowledge, so any subject can be interesting.
