About Me

I'm just learning about the world around me and soaking it all in. Hopefully I can meet some cool people and share lifelong friendships.

I am a pretty laid back person, always seeking new experiences, foods, enriching conversation, and I can enjoy doing almost anything with the company of someone I like.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Meet interesting people with a similar outlook on life. To me life is about people, food, and gathering experiences. Can't take anything with you die so why worry about the physical!?

Interests

The internet is easily my single favorite thing in the world. Other things that I enjoy are video games for the PC and Nintendo. However, I don't just stay inside all the time because I really enjoy exploring, walking, hiking, adventuring, and night time bike riding.

Music, Movies, and Books

I enjoy Indie, Foreign, Drama, and some Horror and exploitation films.
Directors that I would say have greatly influenced me would have to be Gaspar Noe, Sion Sono, Takashi Miike, Lars Von Trier, David Fincher, and Alejandro Jodorowsky just to name a few.

The majority of the music I listen to classifies as electronic music of a million different subgenres. (Except EDM and Dubstep) I also really appreciate soundtracks.

I can't read novels and stick to non-fiction:
Confessions of an Economic Hitman, A Peoples History of The United States, When Google Met Wikileaks

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I think the most amazing thing is making friends from around the globe and connecting with them through common interests. I think what is important is the moments I've shared with people.

Teach, Learn, Share

I often start off pretty shy when I meet new people but once we find some common ground and common humor I love opening up!

What I Can Share with Hosts

Myself; maybe a few stories, and hopefully some new experiences.
