CURRENT MISSION

To travel the U.S. on a budget since I recently quit my job, to meet as many people as I can, to be the person everyone wants to know, to be the best musician I can be.

ABOUT ME

I recently quit my job to do a cross-country road trip. Since I'm not really working right now and traveling across the U.S. (this is why I'm not currently accepting guests), I'm trying to find couches that I can crash on so I can save some money on sleeping arrangements, rather than paying for rooms every night. I recognize that I haven't been in a place to host people when I was in New York, but that was because my roommate was not okay with it. I'm looking forward to eventually settling in Nashville and then making myself available to host travelers when I get there.

PHILOSOPHY

I try to live my life in ways to show people what I believe in how a life should be lived.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I'm not new to this community because I've been a member for a long time, but was not in a living situation where my roommate was okay with hosting people, but plan on having people crash on my couch once I get my own place in Nashville, where I will soon be living.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've been helped out of some jams through couch surfing in the past.
