About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To try to make life as fulfilling as possible for myself and those around me.

ABOUT ME

In the last year I have been working a lot on music production and playing live electronic music. Like traveling, my interests and activities change. I can enjoy making a cheap and simple dinner with friends, dressing up and going to a nice restaurant, going on a snowboarding trip, quiet reflection in a museum, or crowd surfing at a rowdy electro punk show. Having a drink and playing cards, dice, darts, or pool is sort of my night time standby if I decide I want to go out but have no set place. I have no qualms going out on my own, in fact that is how I have met some great friends all over the world. I try to be honest and genuine about who I am, faults included. I'm gay, masculine, and not in the closet. I don't eat beef or pork.

PHILOSOPHY

To experience the most I can out of life and realize that everyone is on their own personal journey to find happiness.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

By hosting and randomly showing up at CS meets.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've always been the type of encourage people to stay with me. I usually feel like I'd be intruding, so only in a few cases where people insist do I end up couch surfing. What usually happens is I meet people locally or while traveling, then go back on a trip just to see them and hang out in their city.

Interests

Music (mainly rock/electronic, but I'm flexible), snowboarding, swimming, cars/motorsports, games/billiards, food and cooking (especially seafood!), drinking and being social. I love meeting new people and hearing their ideas and positions on things and learning about new cultures.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Vappu in Oulu Finland

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach: Basic automotive maintenance and repair, using tools for projects around the house, cooking, business analysis/costing/inventory control, basic computer and networking setup and troubleshooting, introductory snowboarding/swimming, how to DJ, how to set up sound and lighting for a club or concert.

It would be amazing to have someone help me get better at the terrain park while snowboarding or teach me how to ride powder or become a better tree boarder.

It would also be great to spend more time with Spanish and German speakers. I'm actively trying to learn Spanish.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Cooking, music, stories, helping out with projects.
