CURRENT MISSION

...to explore the world, meet its people and share its music

ABOUT ME

I love being around people and sharing stories and music. Live concert venues, dive bars, cafes and book stores are where you'll often find me. I work in a university library where I also host an independent radio show. On the weekends, I often play music at various concert halls around town with a indie folk band as well as a local hip-hop musician. I also volunteer in the art/music therapy program at the local Children's Hospital.

I'm good at relating to people, making mixtapes, reading too many books at the same time, reveling at the autumn, trying new things, finding new music that i can't believe i've never heard before and obsessing over it, leaving my headlights on, walking forever and ruining my appetite.

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I have a futon in a basement just on the fringe of North West Denver. Send me an email if you're looking for a place to stay for a night or two. At the very least, I could hopefully grab a drink with you or show you around town if I'm available.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have had nothing but positive experiences with couch surfers and hosts in Japan, Germany and Sweden. I have met so many wonderful people and made some great friends and shared some memorable experiences.
