About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Do Right And Kill Everything

ABOUT ME

I'm a mystery, wrapped in a riddle, in an enigma. In other words: I'm Batman. Kidding! I'm a very chill guy, & at times I may seem shy, but I love to meet new people & learn from them/teach em a thing or two. As one of my old bosses have joked, I'm the "strong silent type" when you first meet me, and after I get to know you & vice versa, you'll seldom want me to shut up! I mostly try & keep things simple, but at a young age I was taught to expect the unexpected. That said, I'm always down for a bit of adventure every now and then.

PHILOSOPHY

Do unto others, as you would have them do unto you - The Golden Rule

"I Will Not Lose: for even in defeat, there's a valuable lesson learned, so it evens up for me" - Jay-Z

"Never, Never, Never, Never Give Up: Never, never, in nothing great or small, large or petty, never give in except to convictions of honor and good sense. Never yield to force; never yield to the apparently overwhelming might of the enemy.” - Winston Churchill

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

Although I can't lend you my couch currently, I'm open to hanging out & showing people around town.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Recently got introduced to Couchsurfing in Tennessee by a friend while on an epic road trip SXSW of the US, and was pleasantly surprised by the experience.

Music, Movies, and Books

Ask anyone I know, & they'll tell you I'm rarely seen without my earbuds & iPod on my person. Primarily, I'll listen to Hip-Hop & R&B (Biggie Jay, Em, Nas, 50 Cent, Ye, K. Dot, Drake, J. Cole, as well as anything produced by Alchemist or 40 to name a few lol.) more than anything else, but knowing that almost everything we listen to today comes from a variety of influences/samples, I'm very open to other genres. I always tell people if you say there's not one positive thing you can find in a Grand Theft Auto game, then you're clearly not listening to the music. Lots of Jazz, Funk, Reggae/Dancehall Afro-Cuban, Soul, Pop, Rock, Country, Disco, Techno, (even a dope instrumental) etc. coming from different countries & time periods.

I'll watch pretty much any movie/series that'll cause you to think, have a double-take & watch it again, can grasp you & have you drop what you're doing, make you laugh out loud & shut your brain off for a good hour or so, all the way to something so cheesy it'll make you ask "Who Wrote this stuff!?". Mostly, Action-Adventure, Animated, Comic Book (which has me on a graphic novel kick), Comedy (Even a good RomCom), Crime-Drama, Thriller/Horror, Sci-Fi, Docu/Mockumentaties most definitely Mystery/Heist/Detective flicks.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Recently I getting lost in the Appalachian Mountains in North Carolina. While I kept my cool for the most part, when you have a group of New Yorkers who aren't used to having people missing in pitch black darkness, it makes for one hell of a story.

Countries I’ve Visited

Canada, Grenada, Puerto Rico
