Sobre mí

CURRENT MISSION

Making music, playing music for people around the world, and making things that help people make more music.

ABOUT ME

Howdy!

I am a musician and music teacher currently living in Portland OR, USA. I teach music lessons on piano, guitar, voice, ukulele, bass guitar and love to teach music theory and songwriting. In addition to teaching I perform music around town solo and with a band under my full name: Jake William Capistran.

I've couchsurfed a handful of times on multiple cross-country trips through the United States, as well as through Europe a couple years ago.

I am very, very happy to offer in return: cooking, conversation, song, and/or music lessons.

Additionally, I've been sober for over three years now, so rest easy that alcohol, tobacco, and weed use isn't an issue.

PHILOSOPHY

"Be a Light" is the motto tattooed on my forearm.

I believe in being a positive force on this world; for me this means playing and teaching music, giving others the confidence and ability to sing, play, and create. I believe in supporting those who have less, I believe in being a life long learner and explorer, and I believe in working hard to ensure that my lifestyle and actions align with my beliefs.

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Full disclosure, as of now (Summer 2022) I've only couchsurfed a few times (I've historically been more active on HelpX and Workaway), but I'm gearing up for a rather large tour this Fall/ Winter and I anticipate needing some safe harbors along the way.

I'm building out a camper van, and will typically just need a safe place to park for the night, though I LOVE meeting new people and am super happy to cook a meal (and do the dishes!) and share some good conversation.

As mentioned, I'm a musician - so I'm also super happy to return the favor with show tickets, a free CD, music lesson, short custom song, etc.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I've couchsurfed a handful of times on trips across the USA. I have also used Workaway multiple times, as well as HelpExchange. I have had nothing but good experiences. Someday, when I am a little more settled and have a place of my own, I look forward to hosting and paying it forward.
