Overview
About Me
My parents are from Jamaica but I was born and raised in Maryland, USA. I'm a student at a university near D.C. but this year, I'm studying abroad in Entre Rios, Argentina. I work in a local Christian radio station with listeners in Maryland, D.C. and Virginia.
At my home university I'm a member of a touring acrobatics/gymnastics team called the Acro-Airs. We've done shows for the Washington Wizards, Indiana Pacers, and we toured St. Croix two summers ago.
When I'm not training with my team I'm usually working on music. I produce, write songs and actually released my first album "Bad Eyes Perfect Vision" before I got to Argentina.
Recently I've got into Latin music (songs are so much better when you can understand them). Not only do I love the vibes, but they've inspired me to work on some Reggaeton of my own. They're not as great as my English songs YET. I could probably show you what I have so far though.
So there you have it. I'm a radio programmer, gymnast, and songwriter. Let's hang out!
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I'm all for getting as much culture as possible in the places I stay, so I think it's ideal to spend time with locals. I've never shied away from meeting new people. In fact, I love making new friends. Couchsurfing can be a rich experience for both people since both the host and surfer get to share cultures, interests, and amazing stories.
Interests
- working out
- movies
- music
- electronic music
- travelling
- learning languages
Music, Movies, and Books
I'd say my favorite artists are Kendrick, the Weeknd, and Maluma.
I like electronic music, trap music, reggaeton and Brazilian funk music.
I read a lot when I was a kid and loved the Series of Unfortunate Events. I also liked the Hunger Games series and think the movies did them justice.
My favorite movie is Limitless starring Bradley Cooper. Incredibles is definitely top 10 so I can't wait for the sequel to come out.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
When I was 12 I caught a fish with my bare hands.
Teach, Learn, Share
I have a good grasp of Spanish and a great grasp of English so language learning or language teaching is no problem. I can teach you the basics of some flips and if we're lucky, I could help you do your first backflip.
What I Can Share with Hosts
I can share music I've recorded or, even better, I can improvise about anything on the spot. I can share fascinating stories about my travels so far or what it's like to live near the capital of the U.S.
