Hello, my name is Atticus :)

I am new to Austin, just moved here two days ago. :)

Long story short - I graduated college this past summer, gave away 95% of my possessions, and on the road with my van "Howl". Right now, I am working on a 2.5 million dollar funded start up and is living in Austin.

Looking for good people to be friends with! 🙏

I am a poet @atticus.verses and photographer @atticusphoto (Instagram)

A graduate at the University of North Carolina Wilmington. Degree in Business Economics :) I have a passion for Behavioral Economics and Philosophical inquiries. 🕉

When I am on the road, I love checking out local music scenes, local breweries, and local hole in the wall restaurants. 😋

Academically, I am very interested in pursuing the truth to human freedom & behavioral. I am very intrigued by our shared common human condition; this includes our happiness and suffering.

I aspire to be a morally righteous person devoted to self-improvement and knowledge sharing! Most of all, I wish to comfort the living with philosophy and live an exciting and fulfilling life while serving the people closest to me.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To teach the world about the most comfortable handshake, and to make new friends. I have been told that I am full of knowledge and dad jokes, but I think I am as cool as George Clooney.
Also here to pass on good book recommendations, take people out on adventures, and to listen to their story.

Music, Movies, and Books

Music: I am almost a hipster but not quite yet eligible for a hip replacement yet. Lover of Indie, Folk Rock, Classic Rock, Jazz/Blues, International Music, and selective country bands.

My favorite band at the moment would be The Civil Wars.

I consider books my second home. I read everything from self-improvements to psychology to fiction and everything in between.

Please recommend me new suggestions on books, movies, podcasts, music, etc. I will return the favor!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Backpacked Europe on my own when I was 19. I wanted to prove to myself that I am able to do tough things on my own.
