ABOUT ME

My goal in life is to learn everything I can. Meeting new people is one of my favorite ways to learn and couchsurfing has been a perfect way to meet new people. I love art, science, music, bicycling and getting outdoors.

PHILOSOPHY

Ask questions & hey hey hey hey... smoke weed everyday

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I host as many people as I can. Sorry, I usually can't do requests that aren't at least a week in advance. The Bay is very busy with couchsurfers coming and going. I enjoy spending the afternoons and evenings in the many parks talking with surfers, it breaks up the routine and I get to meet awesome people! Let's hang out! We can check out Lake Merritt and the awesome local bars! So come on over to Oakland, I'll welcome you with a beer and a joint.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have hosted many couchsurfers/hitch hikers/backpackers. Hosting couchsurfers has been one of the more educational experiences of my life. I have not surfed yet, but I hope to soon.
