About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Enlightenment and Fun

ABOUT ME

I'm an intellectual jock with a penchant for absurdity.
Gambler, metaphysician, magician, idiot, comedian: I'm a PhD student at VPI in education who enjoys dabbling in the esoteric.

PHILOSOPHY

Try to keep your brain on fire.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I'm new here but I think think I can be a not too bad of a host for people coming thru Roanoke.

I really like urban exploring and or psychogeography. So, if you'd like an experience like that let me know. I took my last guests to a automobile graveyard.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Welp, I went on a music tour this summer and did a ton of couch surfing in almost every southern state. Though now I see that none of those people are on this web site.

Interests

I'm an educator, amateur film maker and urban explorer. I live close to downtown Roanoke and occasionally I like to ride my bike down there late night for a couple of beers and a meal at Texas Tavern. I enjoy the random encounters with the characters in Roanoke.
