About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To boldly indulge in excess and ecstasy while celebrating all the unsung beauty in the world and continuing on my adventures into the sublime!

ABOUT ME

I am man who enjoys simple pleasures...oceans, sunsets, rainy Saturdays in doors, nights out in the club, fast cars, expensive champagne...okay not just the simple things.

Just kidding.

Okay so now you've seen my sense of humor...anyway I'm just getting to know this couch surfing thing, but /i love the idea of it...other things I love are film, music, art, history, politics...I've got a lot of different ideas and philosophies about people and life in general. I want to experience as much as I possibly can and meet as many people from all over the world because I think it makes our time on this earth that much richer. I read incessantly, write all the time, play guitar, sing, and act, and do voices, and have an encyclopedic knowledge of movie quotes...I'm pretty outgoing, like to party as much as I like chilling in and doing movie nights or reading...have been called a chameleon because I can adapt to many different situations and have lived in a couple different countries. I think I'm a lot of fun...but you'll just have to hang with me and find out.

PHILOSOPHY

The path of excess leads to the palace of wisdom.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I'm really hoping this gives me a chance to meet some more like minded travelers who know that it's as much the journey as it is the destination, that wherever you go there you are and at the end of the day-if you're lucky- all roads lead back home.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

None yet...looking to have one on this next trip.

Interests

Music; listening to it, live shows, freestyle rapping, singing, playing guitar, writing it, talking about it...anything that has to do with ALL KINDS OF MUSIC. I love movies, dramas, documentaries, dark comedies. Travel (obviously), reading, writing, philosophy, sex, drugs, rock & roll, art, history, languages, anything unusual, eclectic, and esoteric.
