Hi! I'm Alex.

Born and raised in the US, life-long musician (not as a profession currently), hoping to start teaching English in Korea in February.

I don't have a place to host right now, so for the time being I'm surfing only!

I'm great at writing 'About Me' sections

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I like to meet locals and get more of a feel for a place.

Hopefully will be able to host too when I stop traveling and get a job.

Interests

Things I like to do: play guitar/piano/harmonica (let's jam?), sing, hike, yoga, cook, eat good food, read, write, draw, watch people, play with animals, chill.. I'm so interesting that I can't possibly fit everything here.

Music, Movies, and Books

I started listening to 'Fat Freddie's Drop' recently, they're pretty good. Nice reggae/funk vibes.

I don't really like movies, but Miyazaki and Tarantino make good ones. I really dislike horror/thriller type movies, not my style.

Best book I read recently was 'Omnivore's Dilemna' by Michael Pollan. I've been reading a lot of Murakami recently too. I'm mostly into fantasy when I'm reading for fun, and I like to read non-fiction books to educate myself.

Teach, Learn, Share

Can teach English, music (piano, guitar, violin, theory), and about the world.

Will learn about mostly anything, particularly interested in lifestyle and culture, but most interested to learn about your passions.

Happy to share about my slice of the human condition.
