About Me

I am a 17-year traveler who has made traveling a full time lifestyle for many years. These days I produce music, perform internationally at festivals, have been lucky enough to make many friends who I consider to be family all around the world, and have opened an intentional community living space in the mountains in California. I believe in being open minded to all people, sharing experience, stories, knowledge, wisdom, perspectives; and that life connects us all with the people and places we are supposed to meet at that time, and always takes care of us when we trust this.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am traveling all the time, and I believe very much in humanity helping each other - how open we are to others and the energy we put out is the energy that we also get back. This flow is something that humanity has lost, and I believe very much in trusting this. I prefer to create new experiences with people I meet and share space with when I travel rather than renting private accommodation.
