About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To dream the impossible something or other

ABOUT ME

I live in LA. I work in the entertainment industry. I write things. People laugh.

PHILOSOPHY

You only have a few years to do the things you want, so don't spend them doing the things others tell you you need to do.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I have done a lot of hosting and a lot of surfing. I contribute just by being a part of it because I am awesome.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

My first couch surfed was in Vienna and it was one of the best experiences of my life. I have also hosted a lot of people and stayed on a few more couches all in all this is the greatest concept to hit the human race since sliced bread, or those little plastic thingies in pizza boxes that stop the cardboard from touching the cheese.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I spent a week SCUBA diving on the great barrier reef. It was amazing.

Teach, Learn, Share
