I'm a film student at Drexel in Philly. I also minor in French, and I've spent time studying in France. I'm a pretty open-minded person, and have a low tolerance for intolerance and bigotry. I enjoy getting to know new people and one of my favorite feelings is being in a new place where I'm forced to make the acquaintance of and socialize with new people. I'm always looking to go out dancing or find a cool bar. I enjoy drinking and smoking, but I don't partake in hard drugs.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm on couchsurfing because I like the social aspect of it. I'm always eager to meet new people and travel, and couchsurfing seems like a perfect mix of the two. I also am looking to save money, but more so, save money while bit compromising on the opportunities and adventures available throughout my travels.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I was once in London and pulled my dad out of the way like a second before he got hit by a double decker bus.

Teach, Learn, Share

I'd like to learn Spanish and perfect my French. I have taught creative writing classes and trained summer campers in wilderness skills (Tenting, fire building, etc.) I can also teach one how to use cameras, editing software, lighting equipment, or film theory. (I actually really enjoy discussing film theory)

What I Can Share with Hosts

I am a quick learner and willing to do most chores or small jobs. I've also worked as an assistant secretary and am proficient with most office skills (dictation, typing, etc.) I've spent several summers in the North Woods and have learned to split wood, and maintain grounds as a result. I also have a little experience sailing if you need a crewman. I can film or photograph things you need filmed or photographed as well.
