Love traveling (that's a given), wandering side streets, figuring out foreign subway systems, making a fool of myself, dining until I'm broke, attending concerts everywhere I can, and generally just trying to see as much of this tiny blue dot as I can.

In October 2017 I quit my job and have been traveling since as a concert photographer (and tourist).

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Meet new people and share my love of traveling with others.

Interests

Snowboarding, hiking, wine, food, concerts, music, photography, exploring new destinations, learning how to say cheers in foreign languages, eating everything I see, smell and touch. Except durian.

My day job used to be in advertising as a creative director and copywriter. But now that I quit that (for now) I'm a freelance copywriter and photographer.

I've shot music festivals and concerts around the world and my work has been featured in Spin, Billboard, The Line of Best Fit, Paste Magazine, The Bay Bridged, Aesthetic Magazine, The Beautiful Sounds and more.

Music, Movies, and Books

I go to a lot of concerts as a concert photographer and am willing to travel to far and distance places to hear my favorite bands.

Movies: Science fiction, anime, cheesy comedies, Japanese horror. Anything by Fincher, Tarantino, Kurosawa.

Books: Anything by Vonnegut, historical dramas, science/geeky stuff.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

In 2015 I visited 12 countries and snowboarded in 4 of them. I also went to Iceland for the first time and photographed an amazing music festival. That country is magical!
