About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To see, to do, to go, to be, and to do so with an open heart!

ABOUT ME

* I have had a couple of mismatches due to people not reading my neutral refs and couch info objectively concerning availability, the state of the apartment and the time available to spend with surfers. This resulted in more neutral refs, please read the couch info!

Regarding neutral refs: They are all basicly nice guy, messy house or missed connections. One is nice guy, messy house, host (me) was sick to stomach all night.

Regarding my house: It is not as bad as the worst ones, and the ones concerning the back room are irrelvent as I don't host there anymore. The place can be pretty messy and a bit disorganized at times but nothing awful... Basicly don't stay with me if your a person who is overly concerned with dust and disorganization and all will go awesomely!

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I'm a very warm and honest person. When you are on my couch, you are family, and will be treated as such!

Walking around with my head in the clouds is serendipitous, As are random rain clouds and the occupational atmospheric electrocution :)

with a mind full of theorys, that the proving of them would do little more than entertain, Some ideas that may help someone, somewhere, at some point In their life, I wander, Looking to be suprised by strikingly relevent and unexpected preconceived randomness!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Wanting to host, get to know and understand people. New York has a good solid base of surfers and surfing related events that need people to participate in them, this is where my couch comes in. I also try to stay as active as possible on the last minute couch board!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

With art as well as life, it is a work in progress. Couchsurfing has helped me form great connections with amazing people, and helped me feel more at home on this planet, as a person and an artist!
