CURRENT MISSION

To never be too comfortable in my shoes.

ABOUT ME

I'm a big proponent of finding and nursing the fire in one's belly. I'm try to find people, places, music, literature, etc, that will blow my mind. I'm constantly looking to be inspired. The goal is to lead a life, and to do things, that could one day maybe, eventually, possibly, inspire somebody else. I mean, really, what else do we have to live for?

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've never hosted someone, or been hosted. I have, however, met a couple of people for coffee in different parts of the world. I'm usually lost when I first get into a new city, and couch-surfing has always managed to give me a starting point!

Interests

I'm a musician: youtube.com/infectedbasketcase01. I also like to write; I have a podcast that has over 200,000 listeners from all over the world. I'll try almost everything once.
