ABOUT ME

I'm a passionate fan of music and literature. I also fish the puget sound frequently and backpack at least once a year. Besides that I'm an Eagle Scout
and I practice meditation primarily in the Zen tradition.

PHILOSOPHY
"Tradition becomes our security, and when the mind is secure it is in decay."

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I live with two roommates in a small basement apartment in the university district of Seattle. There aren't any extra beds, but I have room enough for two people in the common area of our apartment. I have a bedroll, sleeping bags and extra blankets in the way of bedding.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

A friend and I took a road trip down to Joshua Tree and back last summer, and we used couchsurfing all the way through to meet people and find lodging on our tight budget. We consistently had great experiences with couchsurfing and I'm looking to give back.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Teach, Learn, Share

I can take you fishing out in the beautiful puget sound and give you advice on where to locally hike/ backpack. I can also build and install a koi pond if you have need of such services.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Blankets and sleeping bags. Food is scare but "thou are that" so what's mine is yours.
