About Me

CURRENT MISSION

You only live once so make the most out of it.

ABOUT ME

Energetic and empathetic, that’s me. I love to have a good time. Whether it is watching tv, enjoying the nightlife, sliding down a mountain with a board strapped to my feet, or surfing a sidewalk or the breaks I always find a good time in any situation; even if I am bored as hell.

I love food and music and know NorCal (Northern California) well. If you were to be my guest I could show you a side of Cali most can't. From the gold rush to the redwoods to the bay and San Francisco to Tahoe I know it all very well. Weekends or CSUS breaks work best for me as far as being able to show people around. I also have some friends with the best NorCal greens from the world famous Humboldt.

When I graduate college I plan to work as a writer. I hope to get into Investigative Journalism and spend my life traveling. Before graduation I want to travel as much as possible just in case I get stuck behind a desk. I'm here looking to fulfill that wish and help others fulfill theirs as well.

Did I mention I love to cook so, if you were my guest or I yours, I'd have now problem preparing a meal or two for but I am a student and don't have the largest budget so, be easy on me.

Lets see, what else? If I missed anything then feel free to ask. Oh, I enjoy brewing beer as well and I traveled the US and Canada with a friends' band Another Damn Disappointment and Nofx, Bad Religion, Rise Against, Guttermouth, Atmosphere and several other punk rock bands. Again, ask if you have any more questions.

PHILOSOPHY

There is good in everyone. However, it can sometimes be masked by past events that have been buried deep within the soul. All you need is a little love and affection to cure the world.

My knowledge is pessimistic but my hopes and dreams are optimistic.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I host people and hope to be hosted in the future.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

When touring the US with my buddies' band, we would often couchsurf at people's places that we would meet at the show. I have also hosted a few people.

Music, Movies, and Books

Wow I hate this question

Teach, Learn, Share

I love to teach people about the evil of American capitalism and organized religion. I am very opinionated and try to do extensive research on subjects I feel compassionately about including, but not limited to, factory farming, global climate change, over fishing, war, music, and a lot of other things. I want to change the world, one person at a time.

I'm also completely open and willing to letting the world change me.
