About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Appreciating, and enjoying that which I appreciate every day!!!!

ABOUT ME

I've enjoyed traveling since I was little, and have tried to really experience places i've liked to the fullest, i.e. lived in Argentina for 4 years, and Spain for 3. For now, professionally I'm still confused about where I want to end up, different paths all focused around music. Changing directions is not something I fear, and new projects are always running through my head. Enjoy meeting honest people, talking, learning, teaching, building..... Appreciate creativity, dedication, sacrifice, friendship, and love above all else. Love animals, nature, ocean, smokey jazz clubs.

PHILOSOPHY

think before you think
the world as will and representation
you get what you ask for

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Just joined, but looking forward to meeting people, surfing, and hosting really whatever, you learn from the good and the bad.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've only had one experience which was amazing! jennifer in Buffalo, NY hosted my girlfriend and me, partied with us, stayed up till four talking with us, took us out for some late night snacks, saved me from getting put in jail (over a discussion about my dog with a police officer), accepted a third couchsurfer called Spock(my dog), and gave us an awesome rundown of every place that was worth while going to in the area! Oh, yeah, made a feast for breakfast.
