CURRENT MISSION

I'm making a documentary about Hollywoods - ten of them! I'll be driving across the country to ten towns called Hollywood. Live in one or near one? Let's talk!

ABOUT ME

As mentioned above, my current goal is to complete a radio documentary about different places in the US called Hollywood. More info at www.adamgoeshollywood.com!

I've worked in advertising, casting and video production. I've got good stories from all of them.

我为什么加入 Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

My current project is all about gathering people's stories and perspectives, specifically on a weirdly American cultural touchstone called Hollywood. I'm hoping that the CS Project will provide a way for me to meet people across the country so I can stay with and interview them, and get a better sense of what it's like to live in a place with such huge expectations attached to it.

兴趣

I love to write! I also do standup on occasion, and that's rewarding but exhausting. I love movies, too.

I'd be lying if I didn't admit to being a bit of a nerd. Have a question? Ask!

我做过的一件不可思议的事情

I performed standup at the Upright Citizens Brigade Theater in New York. I don't think I've ever been that nervous in my life! The next week, I was recognized in the street by a girl who had seen the show. Probably the coolest thing that's ever happened to me.

More to come... I'll have to give this one some thought.
