Ride my new bicycle

ABOUT ME

I live in Boston, Ma, where ride my bicycle, make saurkraut, and play guitar on my deck. I have spent the past few years living abroad and now I am ready to get out and explore my own country.

PHILOSOPHY

Take good care of myself, give freely, interact gently with the world

Warum ich bei Couchsurfing bin

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I have only couchsurfed a handful of times but they have all been great experiences. I hosted when I lived in Bali, and have used the site to meet up with people around the world.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I couch surfed around Germany, Singapore, and South Korea: all great experiences that couldn't have happened without my wonderful hosts.

Eine tolle Erfahrung, die ich gemacht habe

A couple of years ago I played music for a Balinese cremation ceremony. We were carried on a bamboo platform by shouting men who would spin us around to confuse the spirit of the deceased. It wasn't my finest performance but I managed to keep playing without falling off.

Lehren, lernen, teilen

I can teach you about music, chances are if you put me up I will have a guitar with me. I will serenade you...or be quiet if that is what you desire. I like to cook, but I don't claim to be especially good at it. If you are doing any housepainting or building projects, I am somewhat handy in that department.

I am very interested in learning new languages.
