CURRENT MISSION

Don't die in Asia.

ABOUT ME

Last surfing activity was when Mr. Steve Kaye and I bought one-way tickets to Asia and surfed, ate and shat our way around for the better/worst part of a year. We posted stuff about it here: http://herroasia.wordpress.com/

Currently I'm back in the States working for PEAK Adventure Travel (Intrepid / TrekAmerica) cartin' for'ners around the best and worst of the good ol' U of SA (camping, city-ing, short-shorts-ing, Blue Ribbon-ing / Wild Turkey-ing, etc.) in a huge van. Yessir, I represent us to them!

In general, however, I'm working towards becoming tobacky-smokin, moustache-sportin, Turkey-guzzlin, porch-sittin, guitar-pickin old man with some good tales to tell, but today to to live in such a way that I won't have to make them all up. Maybe you can help with that.

Sometimes I also take pitchers: http://www.flickr.com/devonblunden

PHILOSOPHY

Hyah!

Pourquoi je suis sur Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

"Mi coucha es su coucha."

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Hosted some great folks in our college-era Isla Vista rat's nests. In the last place I paid actual rent, Elko, NV, the only two CS hosts for 300 miles were me and my roommate, so we got a lot of traffic. A pan-Asian shitstorm/sojourn through 2010 was my first time Surfing. Was a good wave to ride and it never even crashed into a Kazakh serial killer's apartment. Took a job as a travel guide, so haven't had a whole lot of chances to surf or host these past couple years. But will again soon.

Centres d'intérêt

Awful, awful things.

• traveling
• guitar
• camping
• surfing

Morceaux de musique, films et livres

Movies: Point Break, or anything by Werner Herzog starring Nicolas Cage
Music: Toejam & Earl - Panic On Funkotron soundtrack
Literature: Bleak and brutal human truth a la Cormac McCarthy, Tobias Wolff, Samuel Longhorn Clemens.

But the best way to get to know a place is through its usually myopic free local periodicals and publications. Also, through Cowboy Poetry.
