CURRENT MISSION

Climb up stuff, find fast ways back down.

ABOUT ME

Just reached 34. Still up for shenanigans.

Currently living in a yurt with 6 other people outside of Valdez, AK. I can't host at the moment but hold tight.

I have a high level of energy and deal with it accordingly.

My life gets weirder at an exponential rate... feel free to contribute.

PHILOSOPHY
"And do not kid yourselves that the triumph of commerce can conceal its appalling effects on humanity. For you cannot resist the historical fact of life by processing it simply into profit and loss. Collectively, our will to live will smash the supremacy of senile economics."- Vaneigem

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Travel around like it was my job and make sure that fellow travelers don't lose their nerve.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I get around a bit. I surfed around parts of the US, hosted a fair amount, though less than I'd like and traveled from ireland to Romania and back using the network. Traveled to Pakistan with one of my favorite people from CS to attempt some wild ish. People are amazing.

Intereses

I love mountaineering/climbing, impromptu dance parties, Music, Good Beer, Running, Trespassing, camping, backpacking, hitchhiking, radical politics, capoeira, Capture the Flag, living a life worth writing about, writing letters to friends, learning the stuff they don't teach you in school, skiing, cooking.

Música, películas y libros

Douglas Adams, Terry Tempest Williams, Mark Twight, Henry Rollins, Edward Abbey, Margret Atwood, Sebastian Junger, John Krakauer, Raoul Vaneigem. "I think we ought to read only the kind of books that wound and stab us. If the book we are reading doesn't wake us up with a blow on the head, what are we reading it for? ...we need the books that affect us like a disaster, that grieve us deeply, like the death of someone we loved more than ourselves, like being banished into forests far from everyone, like a suicide. A book must be the axe for the frozen sea inside us. "- Franz Kafka

Movies: O Brother Where Art Thou?, Children of Men (welcome to the future my friends), American Beauty, Men Who Stare at Goats, Naussica of The Vally of the Wind, Gasland, Fight Club, Dead Alive, Evil Dead 1&2, Army of Darkness, Night/Dawn/Day of the Dead, Return of the living dead... see a pattern going on near the end there?

Music: Post-Rock (e.g. Godspeed You! Black Emperor), punk rock, hip hop, alt-country

Algo increíble que he hecho

Attempted to climb an 8000m peak in Pakistan during the winter.

Enseña, aprende, comparte

I cook, i tell stories, play harmonica and if you have a saxophone lying around, its been a while but I can try. Teach you how to climb. I think of myself as a bit of a story teller.

THINGS I WANT TO LEARN:
More Capoeira
Juggling tricks
Acrobatics
Spit fire
Play any instrument you can teach me
Parkour

And if anyone can tattoo me or knows a tattoo artist, I'd love to meet you cause we've got work to do.
