About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Understanding the relationship between this flesh coffin and the wider spiritual spectrum

ABOUT ME

i am on a path that takes me past many doorways, but i never really enter them. i get to see many things in passing, but they're all just passing. i know where my home is, but i don't feel that i really belong anywhere. i'm not saying that anywhere is just as good as any other place, but sometimes the physical plane seems terribly irrelevant.

PHILOSOPHY

we're all just learning this. yes, you too. and yes, i need to remind myself of that. i am beginning to believe that every event is placed in order to show my spirit something.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

just staying with friends here and there in california, napa valley, bay area, etc. i found that couch surfing in community housing is great, because the sense of personal space is much more fluid, malleable, comfortable.

Interests

trying to figure out what exactly my trip is, trying to understand the subtle energies of life, activating heart as well as mind, seeing beauty everywhere. music, writing, capoeira, sitting, breathing, watching, laughing or crying where appropriate.

  • writing
  • beauty
  • capoeira
  • music
  • surfing

Music, Movies, and Books

currently into poetry, sexton brautigan carver plath cummings bukowski ikkyu, reading list is too long to talk about... murakami bowles burroughs kerouac fante amado
music: jack logan delgados blonde redhead james belle & sebastian johnny cash will oldham lots and lots

i like traditional music, experimental, progressive, classical, pop... as long as its true, relates to real things.
it seems like the best music comes along right when its appropriate

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I gave up a car and housing in order to figure out whats really important. i feel like many people are way ahead of me on that, but for me its an amazing move.
