About Me
CURRENT MISSION
To do what I love for a living
ABOUT ME
I was born in a tiny town called La Crescent, Minnesota. I've loved music, poetry, art etc. all my life. I'm so grateful that I've been able to make a go of playing music for a living. I skate. I surf. I sing. I love to travel.
PHILOSOPHY
I believe that you create your own destiny and are responsible for you own happiness and self actualization.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I have always been a huge fan of having folks crash at my place and vice versa. I've found that I'm able to have a much richer experience when I stayed with friends compared to a typical hotel experience. I discovered couchsurfing through a cellist that I toured with for over a year. I was a bit skeptical at first, but I was blown away by the hospitality and kinship that I experienced upon meeting my first couchsurfing host. Although I'm fairly new to couchsurfing, I'm a huge supporter of this amazing community of supportive, kind-hearted people.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
I've couchsurfed all over the Midwest and Southeast. I've met many amazing folks through couchsurfing. I've never, ever had a single negative experience with couchsurfing.

Teach, Learn, Share
I am very interested in learning Spanish, Italian and French. Any other languages are good too.
