ABOUT ME

My middle name is shane, i enjoy being idealistic even if it totally fucks reality, reading 3/4 of books, I eat cliche thai and indian food like pad thai and chicken curry, hate hate hate myspace and facebook. I make fun of blogs and zines but secretly wish i was the proprietor of both. I could bullshit Bernard Madoff. I love my mother, not Oedipus complex style, I dont drink or do drugs, I wish my mom cared about that. I am a blood relative of the man who shot John Dillinger to death, its my only family story. never been skydiving snow-boarding bungee jumping base jumping or any kind of dick measuring contest type of activity. I do cliff jump on the regular, 40ft and under. I like: graffiti, vans(shoes and vehicles with "free candy" spray-painted on the side), khaki shorts (no cargo), Black Sabbath, talking about winning the lottery and going on rampages, predator 1&2, Gary Busey (hes ate up), white tees, fake glasses, sweet camping gear like camelbacks and mummy sleeping bags, tallbikes, Slayer (the greatest band to ever be), petite feet, making fun of everything, wearing a suit on every American holiday and Jewish observance, profane bathroom scrawlings, being working class (No Fortunate Son)

PHILOSOPHY

Soli Deo Gloria

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Spreading the word and making people who are already generous with their couches to be able to care and chill with strangers for the sake of our meatspace.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have mostly surfed the familiar couch but recently have opened myself up to the couch less traveled. Stories are the only thing eternal about our existence, and thats why i love meeting new people. I wanna live through the words of people i barely know.
