CURRENT MISSION

To explore every nook and cranny of Europe!

ABOUT ME

I'm an energetic, outgoing, quirky, adventurous guy who's always excited to explore a new city, see a concert or play in some out of the way dive, or just generally discover more about the world I live in.

You'll often find me discussing the meaning of life (I'm not yet sure, but I'm beginning to think it may not be 42 after all), the mostly impractical implications of some vague philosophy I happened upon on Wikipedia, or whether animals in the zoo really know they're being watched.

I love rock music and go to far more concerts a year than my ears would like. Though I play real guitar as well, I'll usually air guitar a solo or two as I walk.

I just graduated from university in San Diego, and will be starting graduate school once I return from Europe!

PHILOSOPHY

Life is for learning and living! There is little in the world which doesn't fascinate me, and my general goal is to soak up as much of it as I possibly can.

Pourquoi je suis sur Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I've never hosted anyone, but I'd like to. I'm moving to Cambridge after my grand tour of Europe, and will certainly host some CSers then!

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

So far not many! I've couchsurfed in Madrid, and intend to do so in a lot more places! I also intend to host once I establish my new home in Boston.

Une aventure extraordinaire que j'ai vécue

I remember seeing an opera in an outdoor square in Italy and everyone sobbing and singing together. It was incredible!
