About Me

CURRENT MISSION

to contribute to the best possible life experience for all

ABOUT ME

I'm a musician, and a travelling one at that, who believes in following his heart and living his dreams above all else. I relish seeing new things everyday, meeting new people and hearing their story, and sharing the adventure of life.

I'm an easy-going, positive, friendly and generous person who lives life right out there on the edge, and is not afraid of anything at all. My life story has some mighty extremities, and I know I am not alone. True it is, that the other side of fear, is freedom.

oh, and I don't have much time for those who are so naive as to cast judgement on those without first taking a look at themselves, let alone those who tell someone else how to live their life.. at the end of the day, we all have to be true to ourselves, and ourselves alone.

PHILOSOPHY

peace, positivitity, living a life with passion. to make the very most of every magic moment, and take NOTHING for granted. and to never judge somethings value by a dollar sign

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I have SOOO much time for anyone who is stepping outside of their comfort zone and seeking adventure. To those whose pathes cross or meet with mine, I offer all that I can to help. It might be food, shelter, music, laughter, directions, contacts, transport, or company for part of the way. At the very least, each new person that we meet is a potential new friend.. and I am all about this world becoming closer together.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've traveled all over the world, and stayed on numerous couches, floors n beds along the way. Not necessarily through couchsurfing.com.. but now that i'm here on this site, I'd say that's pretty likely to continue! I've had people stay with me, and have also given people rides whenever I am traveling. Looking forward to the next CS meeting in an area that I am in, and also to contributing ideas towards the site... it's an awesome concept, and great to see it in action!

Interests

making the most of the time we are given. travel, meeting new friends, spontaneous adventures, anything outdoors or to do with the ocean and, of course, music (seeing as I'm a musician and all!)

Music, Movies, and Books

.. anything of substance and not-so-mainstream as such.. mostly those books that encourage one to live their life in absolution.

I just finished reading "Into the wild", by Jon Krakauer. A truly incredible true story... and anyone who is truly seeking a life of adventure should read it.
"way of the preaceful warrior"
"The Alchemist"
"Mans search for meaning" - Victor J Frankl

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I make sure to fit in at least one amazing experience every day.. it just depends what you classify as amazing. For example, I find taking in a view of Mother Natures creation a pretty amazing sight to behold.. whereas many people just walk on by without even taking the time to notice due to their narrow-sighted ways aka "having the blinkers on".

Teach, Learn, Share

all the above.. I think it's fair to say that if we open ourselves up to possibilities, all three of these are achievable in abundance with everyone that we meet and everything that we experience.
