CURRENT MISSION

Although my goal in life is to write music, there is nothing I love more than a good conversation. I will always be a student, and my studies these days include living spontaneously, connecting with others, and sharing my music.

ABOUT ME

For the past five months I've lived abroad, and I have to say that it's been one of the greatest blessings that life has offered me thus far. I'm a type A person, so I find it extremely easy and comforting to adhere to a strict schedule (although I don't think this is the best way to live), so on my travels I'm doing my best to live in the moment and break the routine. Although I'm reserved, I feel like I am very personable, and can connect with just about anyone that I meet.

PHILOSOPHY

Always be evolving. Work hard, but make sure to leave empty spaces in your life for awesome people to enter, and for creativity to strike you.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I'm absolutely new to couchsurfing, so I'm not quite sure about how people go about this. But I'm flexible and I will adhere to the rules of anyone who has the generosity of opening their doors for me. I'm willing to help out with cooking, cleaning, etc, and any sort of short term project that might need an extra set of hands. Like I said before, I'm a musician and absolutely love playing for people, but I'm respectful of peace and quiet if that's what you want.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Although I've never used couchsurfing.com, I've spent the night on the couches of more people than I can count. The most memorable was probably the two summers where my dad and I rode our bikes down the Pacific Coast Highway of California, from San Fransisco to San Diego. In almost every city we stopped, my dad had a friend from either high school or college that I was able to meet, and he was able to reconnect with.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

When I was 14 I jumped off a 20-meter cliff into a river. I'm sure there's been greater things I've done, but that was pretty damn awesome.

Teach, Learn, Share

Other musicians, without a doubt. People from other countries as well. Anyone who speaks Spanish I would love to talk to you! I also am really happy to help out anyone who wants to practice their English- I'm much more understanding now after struggling to communicate in Spanish for the past 5 months.
