Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To meet local people and really get a feel for the way people live in the places I travel. Share stores, laughs, drinks, and recipes.

Interests

I love hiking, skiing, fishing, road trips, and music. As well as meeting new people and trading stories. We go to most art museums we can. I love graffiti and sculpture and I experiment as an armature photographer.

Music, Movies, and Books

I'll listen to anything but my roots are in American blues and soul. It's mostly what I played on my old radio show on KGLT. I really enjoy charles bukowski's poems. Movies are all over the place but I really enjoy all the the Cohen brothers films

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Seeing the 2015 super moon rise on La Push beach in Olympia National Park with my sister.

Teach, Learn, Share

Interesting facts about life and nature. I am very mechanically inclined. I can fix almost anything and I never mind teaching others what I know. Knowledge is a gift pass it on.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I'm very hands on oriented. I have repair knowledge in plumbing, carpentry, automotive repair, and many more subjects. As well as cooking, being very tidy by cleaning more than what I make make a mess of, and sharing stories about my crazy adventures an misadventures in Montana.
