I am a lover of travel, of people and the natural world. I play music with my friends, enjoy exploring Los Angeles daily, am happiest when I am roaming around and seeing where the day takes me. I'm not on here much these days but hoping to get back out there and see more of the world.

Pourquoi je suis sur Couchsurfing

There's no better way to travel than to be with a local and find out the spots that resonate with them. It's a great way to learn a culture, and to get out of my own bubble and see things from a different perspective.

Centres d'intérêt

I like to think my interests are pretty broad, however I spend much of my time digging for new music and movies, reading, hiking around Los Angeles, and introducing myself to new food.

Une aventure extraordinaire que j'ai vécue

Flew to South Korea on a whim, rode bikes under the fireworks on fourth of July in Eugene, Oregon with people who were strangers just an hour before. Saw the aurora borealis in Michigan, meditated in Big Garden Park in Quebec, painted my face and was confused for a clown meant to perform at a wedding reception, happened upon a Zen Center in some neighborhood of Lawrence, KS and practiced with their group for hours, went for some crystal chakra healing by Bell Rock in Sedona...
