ABOUT ME

I'm into art, mainly music.

I try to be open minded while maintaining my family values. I like meeting people who are friendly, respectful, sociable, passionate, and artistic.

I play cello, piano, guitar, bass, mandolin, and can tickle a few other instruments. I've played music since i was a child.

heres a link to a music video for a band i play with, i am not a actor in the video (no one in the band is) but you can hear some of the stuff i do. feel free to check out from giants on facebook

Last winter i switched all of my kitchen pans and pots to cast iron. I love to cook, experiment with new foods, and converse over dinner.

Small homey pubs, places condusive to conversation.

PHILOSOPHY

live by the fomas that make you brave, happy, and kind

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I've both hosted and surfed, try to be kind and open minded. I try to respect space on others couches, maintaining cleanliness and friendliness.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

hosted a few surfers, surfed a few couches. I haven't used the site very much since i signed up in '06, left the page dormant for a few years and picked it up again about six months before i started travelling. It's a brilliant idea, with some great people behind it.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I'm excited to spend time with a world class cellist in London. The mayan ruins in mexico was great. Canada is so vast and beautiful, both coasts have gutwrenching beauty.

Teach, Learn, Share

a life of art is never wasted, no matter how poor the artist.
