CURRENT MISSION

To play a lot of music and meet a lot of cool new people

ABOUT ME

They would say that I am funny, warm, loyal, ambitious, open minded and eager to try new things and meet new people.

PHILOSOPHY

My code of life and conduct is simply this: work hard, play to the allowable limit, disregard equally the good and bad opinion of others, never do a friend a dirty trick, eat and drink what you feel like when you feel like, never grow indignant over anything... bathe twice a day . . . learn to play at least one musical instrument...never allow one's self even a passing thought of death, never contradict anyone or seek to prove anything to anyone unless one gets paid for it in cold, hard coin, live the moment to the utmost of its possibilities, treat one's enemies with polite inconsideration...and be satisfied with life always but never with one's self.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I am interested in hosting couchsurfers for the first time. It seems like a cool way to meet new people from all over the world.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

None so far, but I am looking forward to getting started.

Interests

I am a drummer and I play in several local bands so good musicianship, actually any great artistry, really captures me. I spend most of my time playing music, working and socializing as much as possible. I am always looking for new folks to connect with and new musical styles to explore and perform.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

When I was 12 I went out of the US for the first time, to Hungary, and I remember being amazed at how I felt like I was in a different world on the way home from the airport. The different language, the different cars, brands etc. made everything seem surreal.
When I was in Amsterdam I went to see the Ann Frank House and since I had read the book as a kid it was really intense to see the house in real life. I was amazed at how small it was!

Teach, Learn, Share

I am a very experienced drummer and own lots of percussion instruments. I am always happy to teach people how to drum and about the cultural background of all the different types of drums I have.
