CURRENT MISSION

stay present/keep movin' forward! get better at living, get better at playing music! plan for eurotrip 2014.

ABOUT ME

i am a strong willed (inherently stubborn), food loving, gracious little starfish/wannabe mermaid, a wise old owl at heart...a creative creature of sorts!
i'd say i'm pretty intuitive and unafraid of being in the world alone.

i play country-blues and ragtime music! i am a guitarist of five or six years and just recently started learning some klezmer tunes on my accordion.

i just wanna keep movin'/adventuring and continue to meet all the best folks!

PHILOSOPHY

THE MIND IS A TERRIBLE THING TO WASTE.

i'm reallllly into lots of old time music right now...trad.jazz, dixieland/ragtime, piedmont and delta blues. i've also been listening to heck-tons of klezmer and eastern european musics. yyyeaaaahhhh.

Eine tolle Erfahrung, die ich gemacht habe

my first hitchhiking experience... 200 miles across florida with four other strangers ....finding a dumpster full of DONUTS...free pizza, free booze, free money, then i ended up on an island and almost sank into some quick sand, inhabited by hoards of conch, in the still of the night. woah! this is what life can be like without a job??? ill take it!

Lehren, lernen, teilen
