Hello! My name is Daniel Todesca, but I go by Danny. I am a college student studying creative writing at Georgia College. I was told to join couchsurfing by a friend who highly recommended it, and since I plan on traveling more I thought it would be a good utility to have. My main interests are music (especially live music) and outdoor activities such as hiking, camping, etc. I plan on getting a Masters of Fine Arts in creative writing and becoming a writer and perhaps a professor, but that is years down the line from now. For now I would like to travel and experience as much as I can.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm on Couchsurfing because I want to make the most out of traveling. I have had good experiences staying in youth hostels and bed and breakfasts but I always feel like an outsider prone to the tourist traps of the area. My best experiences traveling have come from finding locals and learning what they consider are the highlights of their city. I believe Couchsurfing inherently gives more room for a greater traveling experience by enabling this direct line to open locals.

Interests

My interests are pretty straight forward. One of my greatest interests is live music (concerts, festivals, etc) but I also like anything to do with nature. I play guitar, and I appreciate art although I am not a very accomplished artist myself.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can talk about music and literature (though not expertly, enough for a rather interesting discussion). I am out-going and friendly, so hanging out will probably go smooth. I'm pretty easy going, so I'm not hard to deal with. I will respect your home and your rules and your things. If you want to party I will party with you, but if you don't then I will be respectful and I can find something else to do (thats not a problem). Basically let me know what you expect from me and I will comply in return for your hospitality.
