Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm on Couchsurfing because I want to get out of my bubble, and meet new people from all over the world!

Interests

• film making
• music
• drums
• hiking
• snowboarding
• skateboarding
• biking

Music, Movies, and Books

I play the drums, so I listen to a lot of beat-heavy music, but not exclusively! (Dr. Dre, RHCP, Gorillaz, Pink Floyd, Wu Tang, Tribe Called Quest, Tame Impala, DJ Shadow, Massive Attack, Portishead, Hanz Zimmer, Bon Iver, etc.)

I'm into a lot of experimental film. Koyaanisqatsi is probably my favorite movie, but I like so many other things, it's hard to really list it all. Interstellar and The Revenant are probably my favorites from the past few years. Anything shot by Emmanuel Lubezki gives me a lifetime of inspiration. I'm also a huge fan of Denis Villeneuve's work.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've broken my arms 6 different times! (Not sure if that really applies here, but it's a fun fact. I broke my collarbone pretty recently, too.)

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach photography/camera, and general movie-making stuff! I could even help you with your math homework up through calc III, differential equations, and linear algebra! I'd love to learn about and really experience the lifestyles of people and cultures outside my own.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Friendship, a hiking/biking/adventuring partner, eating/drinking, movie/filmmaking knowledge, and much more! Also, I'm not much of a cook, but I'm always willing to help, and I will most definitely do the dishes!
