CURRENT MISSION

To live out a dream

ABOUT ME

I am a musician and a romantic. Trying to live like a renaissance man, although it is tough. I want to travel the world and play music at different places that I go. A Pisces but I'd rather be a killa whale
2 of my biggest traveling ambitions are:

hike from San Francisco, CA to Boston, MA
and
sail across the Pacific.

PHILOSOPHY

Believe in love and yourself.
I try to be more self-confident every day.. but this comes to mind.
"Do or do not, there is no try" - Yoda

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I am new here, but would like to host people traveling and would hope to get someone to share their couch or floor with me (I am part Japanese I have a natural liking to sleep close to the ground)

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I surfed with Julia while I was in SF, it was a very cool experience. Was in Italy for a week and stayed on an organic farm, it was great! Also slept on the coast of the mediterranean.. Almost better than a couch haha
Most recently stayed with a host in Portland, OR. Great time, great people.
