About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Enriching people's lives through the power of filthy sound

ABOUT ME

Fun loving,generous,respectful,loyal,excellent listener,unsubstantiated reputation as a party liaison,a cook that tries hard:)
I'm quite philosophical in my thinking but I always side with the optimists!
I have a big heart that's dedicated to a love for all people, mother earth and a good time.
Part time DJ and total progressive/psychedelic tragic. Everyone's got their vice right?
Living and working in the Bay Islands (Honduras) as a Dive Instructor

PHILOSOPHY

Life is not about waiting for the storm to pass...
It's about learning how to dance in the rain!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Since returning from my 4year latin american oddysey, it's time to pay back the man :(
A hectic work schedule leaves me with very little energy (or a couch) to host anybody at the moment but I still like to stay connected - maybe meet up for a coffee or pass on some local advice.
For me, couchsurfing is a fantastic tool that connects people on a real level, enhancing the surfer's experience and in turn providing you that "travelling buzz" even when you're in between adventures :)
Not to mention making friends for life!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Music, Movies, and Books

Music is my life, which is dominated by progressive house/trance/tech and psy-trance. However, when I do dedicate to a book it's usually non-fiction, cultural history or spirituality/healing based. Recent reads include "Evolve your brain"-Dr.Joe Dispenza and "The Electric Koolaid Acid Test"-Tom Wolf
