TRAVEL: Van or RV!

So I can take a safe home with me while in the Continential United States! A home away from home.

  • I am looking for a good deal on a live-in van. Let me know of any good deals on a van that is or can be converted into a simple tiny living space! If you have a van that isn't getting any use, let me know.

MUSIC: Equipment

So I can keep progressing and expanding!

  • Looper - BOSS RC-300 (can create layers of vocals (& other mic'd sounds) and guitar/ukulele)

Sound Healing Tools

Solfeggio Tuning Forks/ Tuning Fork Set

So I can use them in music AND build a sound healing toolbox and curriculum!

  • Tuning forks are great for sound healing. There are sets of 5-23 forks, weighted and not weighted (weighted being higher quality in general but not always).

Singing Bowls

So I can use them in music AND build a sound healing toolbox and curriculum!

  • A single hand made metal bowl would be a good start and easy to travel with. I think you can get one for 20-40 dollars (or more). I want one that is from Tibet, Nepal, or nearby, preferably fair trade or obtained ethically.

  • Crystal bowls usually are tuned to a note linked with a chakra. F# heart, C# root, D sacral, B crown, G throat, A third eye, E solar plexus, would be the order of my interest.

LIFE: Essential Expenses

I have been learning to travel cheap, but some expenses are unavoidable.

  • Travel Expenses (gas, car maintenance, occasional plane tickets)

  • Healthy Food - I go for non-GMO, organic produce and products whenever possible. Bonus if it is grown locally.

  • Water - sometimes I can refill, other times I get gallons from gas stations.

  • Laundry - on the road, or in certain areas, laudromats are the best option

  • Shelter - I usually stay with friends, work trade on farms, couch surf, or camp outdoors, but sometimes I do need dollars for rent.

  • Health/Emergency Money - I take care of my health mostly through preventitive healthy lifestyle care. For problems that do occur, I like herbs, essential oils, and foods as my medicine. (Go plants!) Also detox methods, pure & blessed water, plenty of rest, and stress reduction. Natural remedies often cost money as well, and I feel better knowing I can visit a hospital if I really need to, so a little money in this department is also a good idea.

LIFE: Occasional Options

Those things that I find enrich my life.

  • Healing Classes - Being able to pay or donate to my teachers and facilitators is important to me. Kundalini Yoga is my favorite, other Yogas, Qi-Gong, Breath Work, Sound Healings, Esstatic Dances, Ceremonies.

  • Eating Out - At places with vegetarian or seafood options. I love Indian, Thai, Mexican, Organic Cafes, and Seafood.

  • Tickets/Covers - I can't always get into events free as a performer. Sometimes I like to go to music events to support my musical friends and my favorite bands, or simply to have the experience. Going to music events also familiarizes me with possible venues and connections.

  • Smalls Gifts to Self - souveniers, books, personal care products, small things to make my life easier, richer, or more comfortable and convenient.

Gifts are sacred.

Deepening Gratitude brings us into deepening Peace and Bliss.

My songs, energy, writings,

and reaching out online and through social media are my gifts to you.

 

I have already been blessed with so much.

These gifts have strengthened my faith

in believing that people can see

that I am dedicating my life to this

for reasons much grander than myself.

Thank you for strengthening my faith, courage, confidence, and spirit. Namaste.

Making it Happen!:  Production and Recording of my Original Music

Development of musical talent and ability

  • I was given an acoustic guitar by Jim-Bo in Avalon New Jersey, 2016. I am practicing often.

  • I was given an electric guitar by Logan V way before I could play it.

  • I was given an old keyboard by Jessica Q. I am still slowly but happily dabbling and it was extemely important to my earliest understandings of music.

  • Thank you Riconekt for the encouragement to play ukulele. My first dedicated instrument, and necessary pre-cursor to guitar.

  • Thank you Mrs. Curtwright, high school vocal director. My class didn't give you the respect you deserved. Thank you for sticking it out. I respect your passion and drive.

  • I was given a karaoke machine in childhood by my family. My humble beginnings!

  • Thanks to Phil from Indian Hills church (childhood) for my first solo & a love for musical praise.

Support on the journey and the road

  • I have often been given safe and comfortable lodging, good food, and good company on my travels.

  • I have supportive friends and family that offer words of encouragement. This goes a long way.

  • Couchsurfer Hosts!

  • Those closest to me, you know who you are. Thank you for everything, especially your love.
