I'll go ahead and tell you a little about myself so as to ward off any notion of being another "one of those guys". I recently just accepted an offer and am excited to say that I'll be relocating to Austin soon from Grand Rapids, Michigan. As to why, well, after the months of hibernation it's safe to say that the ample time to think has motivated me to throw away my snow shovel and become more in touch with my roots (I'm originally from the Gulf Coast). During the day, however, In order to keep veggies on the table, I work downtown as a client relations specialist while writing and freelancing around the city. Most likely one of the more quiet individuals you'll meet, most of my days are spent nose deep in a book, maintaining my own online publication or out hiking. My southern roots won't allow me to be dirty and uncleanliness has never been a trait of mine. I'm a pretty creative person and thrive with like-minded individuals.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Quite simply, at this juncture, I'm in transition. With my recent relocation, my place in Downtown Austin (6th street) isn't quite ready yet and with a start date looming i'll need a place to lay my head for a week or two until things are all set to go.
