I'm a 31 year old chap who's lived in San Leandro, CA for the better part of his entire life. I can tell you a lot about the San Francisco bay area (i.e. where to go for food, drinks and awesome local musics).

I was recently laid off from GoPro after about 2 years of doing tech support and customer service. I'm planning on using some of my severance money to take a trip to Europe!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm new to traveling, having never actually left the United States. I'm on here to see if I can get some advice for what to do and where to go on my upcoming trip that I'm planning.

Music, Movies, and Books

Typically I've been known to read all kinds of books, i love books by neil gaiman, palahniuk, stephen king, john krakaeur, chuck klosterman, david sedaris just to name a few authors.

I enjoy movies of all sorts (I'm not really huge on horror or slasher films however).

I really like hearing new music but I can safely say that country is not on my list of favorites. Some of my favorite bands do include Grizzly Bear, Arcade Fire, Thrice, Brand New, Lost in the Trees, The Beatles, Regina Spektor, Rilo Kiley, Chance the Rapper, Atmosphere, Two Door Cinema Club, Delta Spirit, The Decemberists and quite a few others.
