CURRENT MISSION

I travel to see the way others see. I am most interested in experiencing different cuisines around the world.

ABOUT ME

I am fascinated with art, in every aspect of life. My passion is in music but I am also interested in paint and writing. I love cooking! I love the outdoors! I keep a pair of climbing shoes and a roll of tape in my backpack at all times! I've done a little bit of mountain biking, plenty of hiking and camping. I love being in the mountains. It's a vice that cannot be measured.

PHILOSOPHY

"As for the few fortunate ones who have no call to take a hand in any strife or struggle, who not only have all the time there is, but a great deal that they cannot dispose of with any satisfaction to themselves or anybody else - I am not writing for them; but only to those of the world's workers who go, or would like to go, every summer to the woods. And to these I would say, don't rough it; make it as smooth, as restful and pleasurable as you can." -Nessmuk, Woodcraft and Camping

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

While I can't host right now at my house, I can take people to local camp areas. I know quite a bit of the southern Utah area and northern Arizona. I would love to show people some of this beautiful red rock country. If you're looking for some less than common hiking or camping, hit me up.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I am new to couchsurfing.

音乐、电影和书籍

Movies: I'm a big fan of Paul Newman. I think The Shawshank Redemption, The Edukators and Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels are some of my top films. Fight Club..

Music: Lately it's been a lot of Blues. Jack White is probably my number one. The Black Keys as well as the very old classics: Son House, Muddy Waters, Leadbelly, Howlin' Wolf... to name a few. I'm also into a fair amount of indie music. I'm generally against fm radio and just pop in general. Not to say that there isn't good pop music but it isn't my forte.

Books: Stephen King's memoir 'On Writing' is, I think, one of the greatest books. I highly recommend it! Ray Bradbury has been a huge influence to me.

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

There is a sort of primitive location along the Grand Canyon in Arizona that is about 2 hours from where I grew up. I think it is the most amazing place I have ever been. I try to visit regularly. When I was younger I went to Hawaii and it is one of the most memorable places that I have been as well.

教，学，和分享

Cooking, music, climbing and art in general. I would love to share my experience in these as well as grow and learn in each.
