Hi, I’m Sam. I’m trying to get back to my family in Arkansas because my sister has become ill, more info @ https://www.gofundme.com/bskfy2-asking-for-a-little-help sorry if this link doesn’t work. I’ve got a long way to go and my van just broke down, the brakes are locking up. I’m working on getting the money together for the repairs but currently I’m stuck In Bellevue, WA. Hoping to find a floor to crash on for a night. But I guess this is probably supposed to be more about my personality; I play music but I don’t know any songs, I restore vintage bikes and I ride everywhere, more personally I try to listen more than I talk and I’m really only opinionated about issues that concern everyone.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

See ‘about me’ section

Interests

Philosophy, invention, anything pre-y2k, arts-and-crafts, miniatures, I tend to be pretty tight with animals, ask me about my cat Hotdog Style back in AR. I love driving, my childhood dream was to become a racecar driver (Gran Turismo, not NASCAR)

Music, Movies, and Books

Ride the Tiger, Yo La Tengo; Leolo; the Control of Nature, John McPhee

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I hitchhiked all the way out to the northwesternmost tip of WA from AR, before I learned about this site! Also in the middle of Nov. so I’m a pretty accomplished campfire builder, just not used to cities :/

Teach, Learn, Share

I know a lot about construction and carpentry, I’m also pretty good in the kitchen and I like to think I’m good at bringing flavors together, if you’ll put me up I’ll share with you my cranberry serrano Stockport bitter that I brewed a couple months ago, so good

What I Can Share with Hosts

Conversation, I can go light or heavy. I have a really great road mix that I made for my trip. I do have a pinch of atf that I could be coaxed into cracking the seal on. Also I know how to make your arms float like they’re weightless!
