About Me

Howdy! I'm a time traveling space cowboy from the future, here to transform the present. I live to see and learn and humble myself to the experience of myself through others, I am not just me but everyone I have encountered on this wild road that has taken me all over the world and on so many couches.

I'm a filmmaker and activist working on macrocosmic social justice and sustainability films that challenge our established social order to push greater visions of a better world. I am a community organizer, and my community is global. I am deeply concerned with the state of the world and live my life to try to make a big difference, with my work on a large scale and with every act of kindness I can squeeze into this life on the small scale.

As a person, I'm wise beyond my years, open hearted, a deep and expansive thinker, a gifted storyteller, a comedian, a helper, a healer, and a compassionate human that wants to do good. I'm on a spiritual journey to get over myself and empathize with the whole world.

I'm currently staying in my camper, a 71 Ford f100 with a full apartment on the back with solar panels, a fridge and shower and everything one needs to live a humble, beautiful life.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm a traveler at heart and my home is the world. I'm on a mission to help this world and I'm more driven by purpose than money, so I can't always afford the other option, and even when I can, we are meant to be social, it's weird and wrong that people AREN'T more open to others, it goes against our whole evolution as a social organism.

I love people and I find that sentiment depend the wider I roam. I love to share in this life with others, especially those who are open to other ways of life: there’s no right way to be a human and that’s the evil in the judgement of modern life.

I’m on couchsurfer because when I get a place I’m going to fill it with couches and hammocks and return the favor, not just out of kharma but because I love travelers, and want to help others. It feels good to help others.

Music, Movies, and Books

I’m making my own movies!

Books are so important. I’m hoarding up a truckbed library now, currently reading 4th century Chinese poetry, Japanese natural farming, and posthumous Mark Twain essays and stories.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Hitched across the country many times. Even more in a van. Motorcycled across Guatemala. The films I'm working on are the true wonders that I hope to share with people so they can come along for the ride.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I've been told I'm a "fucking cool couchsurfer" many times. I cook and clean up after myself, try to leave no trace and improve anyplace I go.

I share everything I have even if it ain't much to: Laughter, stories, a lil splash of adventure here and there and a healthy dose of the wild. I'll do the dishes too.

I can talk to anyone about just about anything, have endless stories, am a good listener, a psychologist, and a heart that never runs our of fucks to give.
