Hi: I worked on film/tv production for many moons and have been a rock reporter/photographer for an online film & music magazine. Love to travel and see the places I visit through the eyes of a local. I'm an ultra chill Libra and all around solid dude.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm a kinda bit of a McGyver. Being a Hollywood propmaster for many years has taught me how to improvise and make almost any situation an opportunity for enhancement. It's also an opportunity to make new friends and share experiences. Way more interesting than hotels!

Interests

Since I was 15yrs old I've been enthralled by live rock concerts. I have been collecting vinyl lps for decades and am still searching for new additions. I have been writing concert, award show, and film festival reviews for an online entertainment magazine since 1994 and been able to meet and interview some of my most regarded, iconic bands.

Teach, Learn, Share

I hope to host future couch surfers and share some cool spots I've uncovered near by in so cal. It's always interesting to learn about other people's culinary cuisines and cultures.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I have some amazing stories from both the film/tv realm and the music industry..like the time I played backgammon with Robert Altman and Mick Jagger arrived to audition.
