CURRENT MISSION

Trying to stay curious.

ABOUT ME

I love music very much. I study Eastern European music, and am learning classical piano (mostly Chopin). I used to support my travel expenses solely by busking on the street; now I mostly play at weddings or in the background of TV shows. I've experienced an incredible amount of wonderful hospitality in my travels so far and want to give back to travelers as best I can while I have a spare futon to offer.

PHILOSOPHY

Less talk more walk (hoping to get better at this...)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

My doors are usually open to travelers in need. I'm a single dad and sometimes my son isn't in the mood for guests, so
I sometimes have to say no. However, I'm happy to help you navigate LA's craziness and hopefully you will find some real beauty here. It's hidden, but there's a lot of it!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Wonderful so far

I am mostly interested in philosophy and comparative religion lately. Also I like to meet people and gain a window into their interests.
