CURRENT MISSION

ABOUT ME

Well, where does one start with such a question? I enjoy pretty much anything that is enjoyable! I like to continually try new things. I moved around all my life as a child so it is somewhat second nature for me. Music is very important to me. I play guitar, a little piano, sing and I have been known to bust an ill freestyle from time to time. I am also an actor. I have done several small independent films playing characters like a heroin addict named Kurt all the way to John Wilkes Booth. I wore a bow tie. I went to school for graphic design and I also enjoy painting, illustrating, and photography. I'm a little all over the place when it comes to art but I like it that way. Other than that. chillin.

PHILOSOPHY

Pretty much anything can "logically" be proven right. The definitive factor is where you put your intrinsic value. I put my intrinsic value on anything I can find beauty in. The beauty that gives you a fulfilled life.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I used couchsurfing to move to Hawaii last summer. After two days of couch surfing with my hosts, they had me become a roommate. It was a great experience. We hosted a few couchsurfers while I lived in Hawaii as well. It's great being able to experience different places with people who value the same things in travel, that being, things involving more of a human connection. Just moved back from Hawaii and am staying with my mother. Soon, i will have a couch, soon.

~This may not be a big deal to everyone, but I saw a cow being born. It was pretty crazy. THE MIRACLE OF LIFE!

Teach, Learn, Share

Visual Arts (I volunteered as an art teacher at an "at risk youth" highschool in Mpls.)
Hip Hop (I have spent a good majority of my life studying Hip Hop. I have never just listened, I have always studied)
Philosophy (I love to talk philosophy. I love it when people are as unbiased as they can be, or at least strive for lowest level of bias possible in philosophical conversations. If this happens, I can talk forever)
