I've been a freegan most my life, trying to live simple, work for me, and my community. I did the activism thing for about a decade, but sort of distancing myself the past couple years to focus more on community building stuff, I just want to serve people, I don't care to fight over ideologies anymore. I've been homeless off and on, and am trying to develop a nationwide peer advocacy network called Homeless Solidarity Project, to encourage more peer lead solutions.

I like to garden, love animals and nature, I'm a singer/songwriter(folk mostly), I'm a pretty great cook, and serious homebrewer. I'm poor but contribute what I can, I'll cook a lot to share if you let me, as it will save me money from having to go out, and mutually let me show appreciation to you. I clean up after myself, good at observing other peoples standards. I'll also bring some homebrews with me to share with hosts, as long as the ATF doesn't stop me!

I'm a graduate of the Home Building Institute of America, and have done lots of odd jobs, so can do any sort of home improvement, just about everything but foundation work. I'd love to help my hosts with little day projects while I'm around as able.

I also play guitar, i'm a singer/songwriter. Most of my songs are about love and revolution. If you play an instrument, I'd love to jam. If there are any open mics in your town that you like to go to, I'd definitely be interested in checking them out with you. If you want to learn guitar, or practice singing, I could show you a few things. If you are good at these things, I'd love to learn something from you.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm very poor, and just would not be able to travel otherwise. I don't travel much, so I'm not on here often, but when I have travel coming up, CS is my go to. Thank you all for building this community and resource!
