CURRENT MISSION

this ain't no disco

ABOUT ME

wake up. drink a red bull and eat a granola bar. go climbing. shower. drink some beers. go out dancing. break shit. yell (a lot). sleep for two hours. drive to the coast. go surfing. pass out on the beach. rinse and repeat. if this sounds fun to you, we'll probably get along just fine.

PHILOSOPHY

nobody wins the lottery.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I couchsurfed during my trip to Spain a few summers ago and had nothing but wonderful experiences. Couchsurfing is the best way to meet people and learn about places from a local's perspective.

Interests

climbing. climbing climbing climbing. Did I say climbing? surfing (shortboard preferably, but I'll ride whatever I can get my hands on). Snowboarding. Spinning poi. Bacon. Lighting things on fire. Beer. And I'm always down to party--just tell me what, when, and where.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

burning man--if you haven't experienced a burn yet, do it. You'll still be scraping your playa-covered mind off the side of your tent weeks after it's over.

Teach, Learn, Share

want to learn to spin poi? I can teach you. If you've been hoarding a harness and climbing shoes but haven't had the courage to get out on the rock, I'll drag you out. I know most of the ins and outs of basic bike repair should you need to fix a flat or adjust your brake cables. I know several useful knots, too. What do I want to learn? everything. And hey, nothing's ever fun unless you share it with others
