About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Let go. Wake up. Live. EVOLVE!

ABOUT ME

In general,
I am easy to get along with. I am content to go with the flow. I am a neat freak. I don't like when my house is dirty/messy. Dirty and messy are two different things. I am hard working. I believe we are all connected energetically. By we I mean every living organism. I do my best to treat people how I want to be treated. I love my life and I am grateful for the opportunity to experience this life any way I want to. I believe in myself. I believe the human mind is far more capable than we give it credit for. I am, truly, eager to meet you.
:)

PHILOSOPHY

Love the life you lead. Lead the life you love.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I used CS when I hitch hiked across Canada. It was my travel buddy's account. It was a great tool.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have had nothing but a great experience using CS.

Interests

I have been playing drums for 17 years and performing for almost 11. Here are a few of the bands I have played with:
Outpost - Portland, OR
World's Finest - Portland, OR
Buckle Rash - Ashland, OR
Frankie Hernandez & The Old Soul Parade - Ashland, OR.

I'm into hiking, snowboarding, surfing, kayaking, skydiving, cycling, running, swimming, listening to music (yes, I consider it an actual activity) and playing music, obviously.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I was born into a 3rd world slum in Bogota, Colombia and lived there until I was 4. I was adopted by an American family from Delaware in 1989. My mom was a single parent and busted her ass to make things happen for us. I grew up in the suburbs but the city was mad close and South Phily wasn't much further. I used to party my ass off and it almost became an actual problem. I hitch-hiked across Canada in '06 and the views were breath taking! I saw rivers that were so pure and clean the were glowing. I've traveled with crazy truckers, old cowboys and everyone in between. I've performed music touring the US west coast and mid west multiple times. I have played shows with several national and international acts, many of which I have been listening to since I was a kid. Now I'm looking to get back out there. I'm headed to NYC to live and start a new chapter in my life. BLESSINGS

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach and share the gift of singing and playing music. I want to learn Spanish.
