Hello,

My name is Christopher, but I go by Chris. I am 22 and three quarters or so of age. I am pursuing a career in the movie and music business. I lived in L.A. from
Oct. 2013-Oct. 2014. While I was there I was a movie extra, a barista and a piano show floor receptionist. During that time, I got to be in most T.V. shows that aired during that time along with a couple of feature films. I also attended a film scoring workshop along side an acting class in Hollywood. I got my first 88key digital synthesizer workstation while I was down there and started to produce my own scores and songs. I play multiple instruments and I am developing my singing and songwriting skills. After a very insightful yet hard year, I moved back to my hometown to bring things together. I have been working under tree fallers and carpenters for my day jobs and honing the arts while not at work. With the money that I have been earning, I have been building my arsenal of equipment for music and film making. I have also been taking online classes for these things. All of this has led me to shadowing a wedding photographer and shooting photoshoots. I am starting to Film and Direct music videos and short films. It has been a hard road and continues to be a hard road but things are coming together.

The last paragraph was about the career man in me, this paragraph is about the country boy and lover of the outdoors in me. My home town is in the mountains so we have all kinds of outdoors activities. I love to fish, hike, bike, camp, backpack, snowboard, skateboard, surf, longboard, garden, swim, cliff and bridge jump into rivers(backflips and gainers are fun), horseback ride, dirt bike, 4-wheel, geo-cash, cave explore, night hike, take photos, visit national parks, go to outdoors concerts/festivals, basically anything outdoors is what I love to do when I'm not fiddling with instruments, cameras and work.

One could say I am a very curious and eclectic individual. I love the arts, adventures, and traveling.

P.S. I like to read theoretical, philosophical, and informational books. Although the more I read and learn/gain an understanding of things, the more I want to just do and be. Although these things teach how to do and be. Yoda from Star Wars once said, "You must unlearn what you have learned."

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am on couch surfing because I want to meet people where ever I go and have a place to stay with people who understand the love for adventure, traveling, and making new friends.
