From Texas; lived in South Florida; now in San Francisco
(Traveling a lot this year, but the Bay area is home)

In culmination: a down to earth, congenial Southerner humbly chasing experiences that challenge and push me outside my comfort zone.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

• To experience new music and art from different cultures all over the world
• Meet people and have conversations I normally wouldn't otherwise
• To get to know travelers and have friends all over the world
• Inspire ideas about where I should plan to go next
• To show people my city, San Francisco me
• To travel and share experiences that "push" me outside my comfort zone and learn something new

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I'd say arriving at an international airport 30 minutes before my flight back to the states - and I still made it past check-in, security, and customs in record time - just before the plane doors shut....that was pretty amazing.

Teach, Learn, Share

I always thought I'd be an art teacher some day. I hope to learn something inspiring to help with my growth for my art/music practices.

The happiest I ever am, is playing music and jamming with people, sharing musical experiences or making art together - being creative in some way.

I love trying to learn new languages, and always happy to teach a bit about English.
