CURRENT MISSION

Building a sustainable long-term community in Minneapolis and St. Paul.

ABOUT ME

I am a 30 year old guy who keeps busy working as an accountant, playing folk music, dancing, and riding my bike. I own a house with rental flats which also keeps me busy. I love to be outside hiking, camping, and gardening.

PHILOSOPHY

I believe in being gracious for life, celebrating it, maximizing its potential.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Very little other than meeting the surfers staying with others.

Music, Movies, and Books

I love folk music of all sorts, especially if it is dance music. Right now Appalachian and Cajun fiddle music are my main interest. I like Coen Brothers movies. I read a lot at work, so I do not read as much at home as I would like.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Lived in New Zealand for 6 months.

Teach, Learn, Share

I'd love to discuss music and place to explore in the Twin Cities area.

I think every person has the potential to show me something I did not know before, but it would be nice to learn more about music, other languages, and cooking.
