Northern Californian who likes to have new experiences and meet new people. I’m a drummer/musician/avid listener and always up to talk music.

I’ve hosted visitors and friends from all over the world before I found couchsurfing and have met some amazing people on here.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Looking to meet people from across the world.

Interests

I’m an easygoing guy and enjoy most things that bring peace: nature, good company, a good cup of tea etc. I enjoy spicy food so let me know if you have any good recommendations in your locale.

I’m interested in ideas and like to sit down and talk about almost anything. I enjoy learning new things and hearing new ideas/perspectives.
