28. From the South. Married. I'm somehow managing to make a "career" of sorts painting murals in my hometown. I'm bouncing around to paint walls when and where I can. I get along pretty easily with most people. I don't complain much and I don't like people who complain often. I try to be very conscious about cleaning up after myself, and/or considering how much/how/why my actions affect people. Help a brother out?

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

If I'm requesting to stay at your place, I'm probably on a mural tour/spraycation to see some new places and try to leave some Art behind in your town.

Interests

Art and culture, Music, Food and Travel. Food. Tacos....Tacos, you my only friend. I'm learning to play the Blues slide guitar but as of now I'm not very good. Very passionate about Hip Hop culture and Bboying. (Breakdancing) I love to see other peoples murals and and public art.
