CURRENT MISSION

I want to hear, taste, and see the world.

ABOUT ME

My life tends to focus on music, travel, and food. I currently reside in Nashville, TN with my wife and dog. I enjoy cooking, reading, seeing live music, and learning from new people. I am always happy to get out of my comfort zone and try new things.

PHILOSOPHY

I'd like to continue expanding my horizons, continue learning, and continue creating.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I think the altruistic nature of the service provides for a lot of great experiences. I've lived with friends for years and have had so many people pass through. I've also traveled a great deal playing music and have relied on so many amazing strangers to put me up. It's good to have faith in people.

Interests

I love discovering new mediums that help define my own creativity as well as discovering art that humbles and expands my mind.

If I'm not traveling or working, I spend most of my free time playing, composing, and recording music. I also love going out to eat, reading, listening to or searching for records, cooking, or just hanging with the friends. There's nothing like experiencing a fantastic new place with people who are as enthusiastic as yourself.
