About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Being out of town

ABOUT ME

I come across as being mysterious, it's just shyness really. All a result of flipping channels onto A Clockwork Orange when I was way to young, and watching to many movies since then. There's a good chunk of my life lost to home entertainment systems.
In august 2010 I bicycled away from LA and moved to New York to become a filmmaker. Since then the goal is to live opposite to how I had the year before, which I guess means every other year will be exactly the same.. so long as I'm meeting people, traveling, learn things I hadn't been expecting and making films about all of those.

PHILOSOPHY

Don't lie and try not to be an asshole.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I'd love to host as many people as can cram in my apartment. I do have a roommate however, so any way I can.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

My experience is mainly laid out over the route I took cycling cross country. More then a dozen people offered me places to stay (not through couchsurfing). I've long since ditched any feelings of misanthropy since then.

Interests

Film, restaurants I can't afford, bicycling way to fast through manhattan, my niece, theorems that fuck with the way we perceive the world, bizarre and inappropriate dreams, watching people in the park, things not going according to plan just as you thought they would, walking aimlessly and getting lost, hard liquor, a womans scorn, glaciers, get a macro time-lapse of paint drying and I'm sure it would be interesting enough.
