Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I've heard only positive things about couch surfing and would like to get some first hand experience. I love meeting new people and learning about the differing cultures. I strongly believe and have hope in the sharing economy for the future. World travel is something I believe everyone should have access to regardless of economic status, which is why I think couchsurfing is changing the way we experience the world. Hosting someone in my home and giving him or her the best taste of my culture that I grew up with will be something I look forward to doing in the future.

Music, Movies, and Books

This is hard! It's hard to say I have a favorite something when there is so much out there I haven't experienced.

I like pretty much enjoy listening to all music, except for probably heavy metal. I've been recently listening to more smaller electronic artists such as Big Z, Lematire, Aerotique, JuJu, Win and Woo, eSquire. Enjoy NuDisco, Tropical, House, pretty much anything.

Movies: Really anything I am in the mood for, but some that stand out would be Good Will Hunting and Shawshank Redemption

Books: Game of Thrones, Thinking Fast and Slow, The Power of Habit, Napoleon Hill, George Orwell... Childhood favorite: Magic Tree House... but overall I read anything I find interesting
