Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Hitch hiking much of the united states.
Hosting a variety of tumbleweeds, vagabonds, and academics.

Interests

Permaculture. Alternative Energy. Doomsday Prepping (casually).

Music, Movies, and Books

Music: Start with That Handsom Devil, Goldfish, Alt J, Kenna, etc. Move to metal/rock like Mudvayne and Audioslave. Then alternative rock like Incubus and Fallout Boy. Throw in a little rap like Atmosphere and Sean Paul. Classic Rock from ZZ Top to BTO. Hit up some R&B/Jazz like Sara Bareilles and Alicia Keys. Some blues from BB King. A bit of techno and trance like Cut Chemist and Nine Inch Nails. Finish it off with the smallest dash of country.
Add: Macklemore!
oh! and don't forget stuff from movie soundtracks, like revenge of the nerds, or Pirates of the Caribbean.

Love hitchhiking.
One of the best things ever was riding across the entire state of Tennessee in a truck bed.
Also, Love Tubing. Nothing like floating down a river.
