CURRENT MISSION

to be a lumberjack...

ABOUT ME

I previously had a life of the antiquated American Dream... a super career complete with Health Benefits and a 401 K plan, tons of success stories, a 4 bedroom house, a brand new car, and a comfortable little life... until I realized it was not at all what I had dreamed of or wanted... I want to work to live these days... not live to work... thus I sold everything and packed up.... I ended up in Thailand using the only skills I had which was teaching... and I have lived there for the past year... thus, after returning home for a short stint I ventured to NYC to learn a bit about stained glass and a lot about DUMBO and then took a cross country greyhound for 3 and a half days to reside at my current homestead sleeping on a beach chair up in the mountains of Northern California playing music by camp fire every night....

PHILOSOPHY

I'm a walker...

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I can clean your apartment. I can cook spicy Thai food. I can also offer music lessons in any classical instrument as I training in and experience teaching mainly woodwind instruments, but I have skills in other instruments as well.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

The closest experience I have is living in the cot in the back of a bar in Cambodia while working as a bartender there... the cot was free and also offered free food and drinks....
On the other hand... when I had my own home... I offered my couches to anyone that needed them and I had a couple friends that did yard work in return for living there for about 3 months...
