Why I’m on Couchsurfing
HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING
I am always open to helping others who are curious about San Francisco. Weather it be on what to do or where to eat.
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE
When I first moved to San Francisco to go to the SF Art Institute. I moved 7 times in 2 years. This was the period during the huge influx of the "dot-com" in San Francisco around 2001. the rental market had been greatly overpriced and it was next to impossible to find housing in S.F.
Interests
My main focuses are:
Art- I make art and I am interested in many art forms, to mention here.
Music- I make music that is composed through my music experiments. But I do like to listen to pop tunes.
Films- I studied this a bit in school and out of school.
I also like to read Fiction Sci-fi History Biographies comics art magazines newyorker national geographic. I also keep an eye out for odd things that occur in daily life. recording dreams and thoughts

Teach, Learn, Share
I have a pretty good knowledge of art, music,films. I particularly like obscure things. I know anthropology to some level mainly through observations linked to history.
I have a great interest in history and enjoy learning more. Wish I knew more about space, the ocean, zoology, science-- like possibly quantom physics, knot theroy, biology,
