Hello! My name is Andrew, and I'm a first time solo traveler from the Northern California in the US. There, I live in a small coastal town in the redwoods where I work full time as a licensed barber. While in my spare time, help a friend run his record music store.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

For the last 9 years I have been writing a book and have always hoped to take it beyond the realm of my country and bring it to whole new lands. Ultimately I'm looking to do badass things and meet badass people along the way and add to the story!

Interests

Like most people, I have a wide array things I do and enjoy. But when it boils down to it I just enjoy meeting new friends, sharing a drink, telling a silly joke, and living within the moment and creating a rad story in life that I get to experience and share with others.
