CURRENT MISSION

May 2009: travel most of Western Europe in 3 weeks!

ABOUT ME

I'm awesome.
My life is 100% saturated with music.
I want to make music as a career. I like to sing covers of a lot of bands like Brand New, Johnny Cash, Bob Dylan, David Crowder, Jeff Buckley, the Beatles, Jackson Browne, whatever. If I like it, I'll learn it and play it.

Honestly, if you want to know something skype or im me.
I'm pretty open to talk to whoever.

I want to tour the U.S. in a Volkswagen Vanagon/Adeventurewagon someday.

I smoke cigars and have a select few beers that I really enjoy. I'm a big fan of Kilkenny's Irish Beer, Guinness Extra Stout (and on tap), and Moretti's Doppio
Malto. I like to try different beers and I collect the bottle caps.

Also, concerning smoke, I'm not huge for cigarettes but can more than tolerate them, but personally I prefer cigars and pipe smoke. Also, I really enjoy hookah (nargile).

Really though, the best way for you to get to know me is to message me.

PHILOSOPHY

Love your enemies.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Surfers are welcome. I just need to know well in advance. I participate in any way that I can!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I surfed all over the UK and it was absolutely amazing. I went a couple of months ago to Scotland where I surfed with an American student studying in Glasgow and he showed me the town and I gave him a bottle of Italian wine! (Got to share the culture you know...) Then I went to Ireland for a night and stayed in a hostel because most CSers in Dublin were still recovering from St. Patty's day just a couple of weeks earlier. Then I went to London and surfed with two different sets of people for two nights each. Each one was amazing and a blast. I can only hope that when I go back to the U.S. and can host, that I could show people half as good of a time as I have been shown.
