IMPORTANT INFO - PLEASE READ

Am I Available to Host?

Chances are only about 2% that I am available to host at the moment. I am trying to establish myself in Barcelona, looking for a job and trying to find my own flat. Don't be surprised if my answer declines your CS request even for the smallest reason.

To Request a Couch From Me:
1.) Realize that my answer will probably be "Sorry, I can't host"
2.) We have to be 'connected' significantly!
3.) Understand that the flat I am staying in until Dec. 5th is TINY
4.) If you meet the above (#2 especially!), send me a request.
5.) After 5 December, I cannot host because I am looking for a new flat!

Couch Info:
Small flat, 1 bed, limited floor space. No privacy at all!

Personal Description


born in california
schooled in utah
living in spain

I've traveled a bit trying to 'find myself,' but I always end up where I started : playing my trombone. I'm working on popularizing a most "unfortunate instrument" by playing in bars, cafe, clubs and restaurants in Barcelona. This social/musical night life is new to me, but it's something that I am now addicted to and hope to continue for quite some time.

Here are a few projects I am working on:

Calamar Milla
http://calamarmilla.weebly.com
"Calamar Milla" (Squid Miles) is a band that recently picked me up! I'm working on the website as we speak, but keep checking.

Barcelona Jams
http://bcnjams.weebly.com
A list of jam sessions I have attended and my opinion of each! Also a website that is continuously under construction.

Music Incogitatus!
http://incogitatus.weebly.com
A "Free Improvisation" ensemble I started in Logan, Utah. Eventually there will be a few sessions in Barcelona and beyond!

Megalopolitan Soundscapes
http://soundscapes.weebly.com
A "soundscape" project involving metropolitan areas. An off and on project for me.








How I Participate in CS



I came, I saw and I went. I donate clothes to my hosts accidentally because I always forget to pack something. I have clothes in: Vienna, Lyon , Munich, Salt Lake City UT, Moscow ID, Eugene OR, Hesperia CA, Logan UT... maybe more.

I'm a member of the NMW (New Member Welcome) Committee - if you're new, you may have received a message from me! And by the way, I'll answer your questions if you have any -- just send me a message!


CouchSurfing Experience



I host, surf, party and relax. Spend money and save money.

Philosophy



"The first question I ask myself when something doesn't seem to be beautiful is why do I think it's not beautiful. And very shortly you discover that there is no reason."

- John Cage

Music, Movies, Books



Movies
I like mostly indie films/Sundance Films, I'm a sucker for Darren Aronofsky films, David Lynch, Focus Features films, Donnie Darko, Kaufman Films, Jodorowsky, Weird Stuff, Synecdoche, Brazil and of course Tim Burton stuff.

Music
Impossible to narrow down my love of music here! Here is a short non-comprehensive list: Dresden Dolls, Gustav Mahler, Beatles, Radiohead, Fred Frith, John Zorn, Crazy German Polka stuff, Javanese Gamelan Music, Sneetch, Banda and Mariachi, Regina Spektor, Oldies but goodies, Miles Davis, Sun Ra, Shostakovich, Flaming Lips

There's way to much to list. If it's worth your liking, I'll enjoy it too. I also enjoy listening to ambient sounds and soundscapes. Check out one of my favorite albums: http://tiny.cc/h2wqR

Books
I love reading, but sadly never make the time. Zen & the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance, Dharma Bums, Dice Man, The BFG, On the Road, Catcher in the Rye, Into the Wild, Metamorphosis/Kafka, Walden, Vagabonding, God is not Great, Poetry by Ginsberg

Types of People I enjoy



Open and receptive

Anthony is a funny, responsible, flexible surfer - total joy to host in our home! After traveling all day, he was patient enough to wait an hour outside for us to arrive home, and then went straight to work fixing a broken string on my old violin. He proceeded to teach our two young boys how to play trombone, and woke me up the next AM on my B-day with a birthday tune! If you get the chance, host him and be enchanted by all of his stories of being on the road.

It was a weird feeling when this guy left town. Eugene was not the same. We were all so active together. He's so sociable, he brings people together, even though he's the nomadic one. It's quite a gift.
I can't wait for him to come back and tell us his stories, and also for him to see all the changes we've made in our homes! He can be my party planner! Yay! Oh the dinner parties we will have...
That reminds me, he saved me from being a panicked host at my own housewarming party by making a hell of an orderve/cheese plate.. He's so good at helping!

Also, he's the best goddamn trombonist I know.

Meeting Anthony was a great experience!! He joined our band with his trombone and we had a fantastic sesion. After the music sesion we went out with my friends and had a great crazy party night!

The day after I went to work (that was hard for me) but when I came back home he had cleaned the house!

I look forward to jam again, have a great time and keep in touch!!

Despite his horrible ordeal of being stranded in the pouring rain under a provincial, Swiss highway bridge, Anthony was a great guest, a lot of fun to be around, and proved not only that he has great taste in movies and strange British TV-Comedy, but also that hitchhiking is, in fact, possible in Switzerland. A pain, yes. But possible ^^. Like, totally, dude.

This guy is an awesome tromboner, being able to melt into a french brass band that has its own codes and social behaviours.
His way to play the trombone reflects this guy : easygoing, jazzy, that can be really quiet and then burst into laughs...
He's really the guy to rock you weekend out of its pattern.
Good luck for your hitchhiking experiences...

Anthony's a coincidental meeting, an instant connection, an awesome companion, a fine musician, an inquisitive conversationalist, a silent snorer, and a friendly soul.

I feel really easygoing around Anthony, and I like the way he moves and speaks; I would regularly laugh when he was trying to have a serious conversation, just because of his demeanor. Sorry about that =)

We're both nomads, so that means we'll see eachother soon enough. I can't wait!

S'moring, herbs fire-cleaning, or simply camping in Utah, that's the time I spent in his company and the one I intend to spend will be on some hitch-hiking time in California dude!

I'd heard of and talked to Anthony through a few different channels, but finally met him face to face in Wyoming for tour de laramie, a drunken night of biking. Since then I've bumped into him unexpectedly in various places. He's a good guy seeking and creating action wherever he goes, it can be a thought out plan or something spur of the moment. If you've found Anthony it's likely you did so under the circumstances of good times.

Niven and Anthony were our tentsurf neighbors and they were the best possible neighbors! I absolutely loved meeting both of them. Both of them have some of the best stories ever and now they can add their crazy Tentsurf wedding to the mix. I'm so bummed that I went hiking that day. Anthony, the nomad, is always very chill and remains polite and friendly even in the most frustrating of situations. The tent circle would certainly not have been the same without him and Niven.One day hopefully I will see both you traveling nomads again.

You have touched the lives of so many here, and to share that special day with you was a generous gift. I will treasure our time together at tentsurf and in Denver. All the best to you and Niven in your journeys from here forth!

Anthony was a great guest to have! I would call him introspective and friendly - ready for any adventure. He is trusting, fun, friendly, and especially great at caring for others and noticing their needs. He showed up at my place when I was not home and I described how to get into my place. When I showed up at home to find 13 people who had cooked dinner for everyone and had beers cold and ready, I experienced the miracle of surfing - I was being hosted in my own apartment! Thanks for being open, giving, and a wonderful person!

Anthony is a cool trombone player. He will hook you up with some dorian trombone passages that will make you weep with joy. I highly recommend you get him sleeping on your couch as fast as possible!

Anthony- come back, Vancouver misses you and the band just doesn't sound the same without a trombone player on those few tracks! This wonderful creature graced my space for a whole week and instantly just fit himself into my circle of friends, community and music. He was a fantastic guest, a wonderful companion and I feel I have made (yet another) friend-for-life through CSing! Keep doing what you do darlin', because you do it so well! See ya on stage, in the limelight... ;oP

It's been a few months, but I definitely had to change/update this. Since April when I first hosted and met him, Anthony has become one of the best friends I've ever met through CS. He is a great mentor for those newbie-nomads like me who are still trying to figure out the Open Road and its implications. He helped make my first CS event what it was by teaching me how to effectively get the message out to CS locals. He has given me advice, wisdom, and an open ear when I have been having rough days on the road. He somehow has the ability to make the CS magic happen and grow community wherever he arrives, and taught me the necessity of hugging your hosts. I run into this crazy person everywhere... from Idaho, to bowling in Denver, to the library in Salt Lake, to Tentsurf... when will the madness end?!

Those of us at Tentsurf were lucky enough to see him tie the knot with an equally amazing CSer, and they are both welcome on my couch whenever they so desire.

Also, I have no doubt that if things were to get dicey, he's the type of guy to give you the shirt off his own back. Hang out with him if you get the chance!

I don't think strong friendships are easily come by, and--call me crazy--but I feel like I've known Anthony for years and years. Let's hope we can play music together soon. Oh, and, yeah, I'd recommend him to any couchsurfing host anywhere.

I wish "Extremely Positive" was still an option because Anthony totally deserves it.

Anthony and I were in contact more than a month before I came. He was incredibly helpful in organizing my trip. He picked me up at the SLC airport and gave me a ride to Logan (thats a 1.5 hour drive!).

He introduced me to his housemates and friends around town. I got a chance to have some much needed American cuisine (biscuits and gravy, bbq ribs) as well as a local specialty (Burger & Big Dog).

We took a gamble and hitchhiked to Bear Lake together (about 40 miles away) to see the view and recruit a new CSer.

I was in town for a three day conference (Open Education 2008) which Anthony was interested in, and I was happy to share the details with him.

After the conference Anthony and I hitchiked to Salt Lake City and met up with a couple CSers there for an all night adventure.

We saw the sights, went to a concert, took abbey road photos, used flags, and drove bobcats.

see you in CA in Jan!
