ABOUT ME

I am an artist, builder, design consultant, and healer. I love traveling and have for most of my life..starting with being a baby to a father as a pilot in the military. I travel alot around my beautiful California. I do alot of art work and photography, currently working on restoring old bikes into art projects. I wish to do more volunteer work abroad. I love anything in design and health, love to be outdoors and love travelers.

PHILOSOPHY

Great company, great food, great art, cool events, travel, stories, great humour...and the will and desire to handle even the mundane, zen out, and chill, when it falls to crap, know this too shall pass..and bloody hell enjoy LIFE!...IT WILL PASS IN A FLASH...

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I LIVE life as fully as possible...dance as much as possible, create as much as possible..and try and keep the consumption to a small around. INTO total RECYCLING. I as AMerican KNOW that we are major consumer, so I BECAME a recycler and creator. This takes my time away from buying, and makes my soul happier. I hope to meet others like this.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

In real life I have HAD TONS OF COUCH SURFING experience...I do believe this is 'a California term' if I know my slang history right!!!...its what people did when they came to HOLLYWOOD, where I used to live.

Interests

A gazillion couch surfing experiences, and still practice it today, with my local friends...to break bread with coolios on an everyday level, outside of hotels is the devine experience of living. ALL my friends know me as a couchsurfer already.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Amazing things. OMGOD...tons of stuff...I have been too most of South America, Thailand, Belize, Bali, all of europe accept for the very cold region and Turkey. I have seen wildlife up close, great amazing life unfolding...too numerous to tell...

but it is the EVERYDAY stuff that is amazing..the fall of light on an old building the hand held by an elder and child running down the street, the sweet sound of Cypress String Quartet at the De Young last week...the quick wind that whipped me off of a friends boat and the cute guys that rescued me....

Teach, Learn, Share

All kinds....the flower man, is just as important as the banker. (here that BAnk of America!!!!) I love most people, just not those that lie, steal, and abuse others, or overly righteous zealots, who try and push their beliefs upon others....
