Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I am currently in a transitional stage of moving into a new apartment-- but I am ALWAYS willing to lend a hand with regard to finding a great place to eat,drink, laugh, and communicate.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

I have used Couchsurfing to meet some incredible people at CS events while I stayed in Istanbul, Turkey. Unfortunately I was not able to stay with anyone within close proximity to the city centre, but I met many people at CS mixers that gave me a local flavor of Istanbul. Terrific time.

Music, Movies, and Books

I am a lover of all things documentaries/historical films and Memoirs. Music is the universal, and first tongue.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

1) Picking up my belongings and driving up the I-5 Freeway from Los Angeles to Portland, Or and beginning a new phase of my life a few years back. The scenery transitions from California to Oregon were a sight to see.

2) Catching Arthur Verocai perform at my Alma Mater, CSULA, with the Suite for Ma Dukes ensemble. Their performance nearly left me in tears.

Teach, Learn, Share

I am an adamant coffee connoisseur. I can teach you about the various methods/preparations of the fine, green bean the world cherishes. I also love having lengthy discussions on all matters pertaining to music.

I would love to learn to play Chess more proficiently and acquire better boxing techniques.
