Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I am brand new to this, but I want to do everything! I want to come visit you. I want you to come visit me. We can watch Arrested Development and sing songs.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

During the winter of '08, I spent a good half of my week in the Quad Cities, IL&IA, in a play. During the days, I was in a play (The Buddy Holly Story), and during the nights, I was sleeping on my old roommate's couch. So, for about 3 months, he went from being my old roommate to being my Once-Again, Long-Lost, current roommate.

Teach, Learn, Share

I play guitar, bass, piano, alto and tenor sax, and some drums. If you want to jam, or if you want me to jam for you, I can do this easily.

I love to cook! I'd love to watch you cook, help you cook, or cook for you. Chinese food is one of my favorites, and also pad thai. Pizza's great too. I'd love to buy ingredients and cook with them, or a buy a good wine or a beer to go along with whatever else you have :-)

I will share stories, and a drink.
