Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I started a couchsurfing account because my film is in the Marfa Film Festival this year, and I am looking to stay with a local while I am there ! I have always liked the idea of couchsurfing and I would love to check it out. I am super excited to go to Marfa and would love to meet people there who maybe could come couchsurf at my place in LA too.

I like bossa nova and bluegrass. Some of my favorite filmmakers are Andrea Arnold, Jane Campion, Maya Deren, and Larry David. I have read a good amount of Murakami this year which has been enjoyable, and I am reading the Flamethrowers right now.
