CURRENT MISSION

My mission is simple; I want to spend as much time in Spain, Portugal, Italy, France, Quebec, Puerto Rico, South Korea, and Japan as possible

ABOUT ME

I travel because I like to hear foreign music, eat exotic food and I enjoy looking at arquitecture. I also play music, read a lot, draw and generally try to stay physically healthy.

PHILOSOPHY

Be happy, try not to be a fool and be as nice as you can be

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've seen things you people wouldn't believe. Attack ships on fire off the shoulder of Orion. I watched c-beams ... glitter in the dark near Tanhauser Gate. All those ... moments will be lost ... in time, like tears ... in rain.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach guitar and languages. I want to learn languages and music.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I live on a lake a half an hour south of Madison, WI, a city I consider to be one of the greatest places on earth. I mean, yeah, New York, Tokyo, The Inca Trail, The Himalayas, obviously, but Madison has an immense amount of culture, it is near exciting cosmopolitan centers like Minneapolis, Milwaukee, and Chicago. We are surrounded by nature (more lakes than MN -suck it Minnesota!). The food, the music, the biking... I'd go on but suffice to say, Madison is your basic paradise.
