CURRENT MISSION

To explore thoughts, ideas, places, and interact with different people

ABOUT ME

Writer, musician (pianist, guitarist, bassist, etc.). I like to boat, ski, hike, and, in general, be in nature when I can. I also have welding skills, in case they are needed :)

PHILOSOPHY

"My music is the spiritual expression of what I am my faith, my knowledge, my being...When you begin to see the possibilities of music, you desire to do something really good for people, to help humanity free itself from its hangups...I want to speak to their souls."
-John Coltrane

Uma Coisa Incrível que Eu Fiz

I have seen the smallest town in the world in Hum, Croatia. I think the town's population is around 12 or 13 people. I would imagine that being the post-man in this place must be a pretty laid-back job...have to try it out if I ever get the chance!

Ensine, Aprenda, Compartilhe

I know a bit about philosophy, history, worldly affairs and cultural issues. I also am a musician, play piano, a little bass and guitar, and am willing to share whatever knowledge, on whatever topic, I have with others. I still adhere though to the principle that the wisest man 'knows that he knows nothing.' I realize I still have a lot to learn and am interesting in learning, discovering new things through interacting with all different types of people as much as possible.

O Que Posso Compartilhar com Anfitriões

Grew up in NYC. Know some great bars, places to see live music, and also equally know how to escape the city and explore the beautiful wilderness outside the city which few people know about.
