Hi, my name is Dean, 30 years young. I’m a very sociable, curious and caring individual. I love having a laugh with people as well as having deep chats about life and the world around us! I’m very laid back and chilled, I just go with the flow and enjoy life and people. I have a degree in psychology and have worked as a social care worker.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am here to connect with people of different cultures in their own environments. I found that when traveling alone the best way to do this is to interact with locals for it is they who always provide the best experience when getting to know a different place and culture.

Interests

Music is the love of my life, I play drums and a bit of guitar and sing (altough I am not very good at singing I still enjoy it). Myself and my twin brother have a band together and we produce and write songs! I also love photography and art- Other interests include reading, writing and socializing!

Music, Movies, and Books

I listen to many different types of music, if I were to put a playlist on shuffle you could hear anything from Fleetwood Mac to Gorillaz, from Bon Iver to Mura Masa, the 1975 to Bob Dylan, Arctic Monkeys to the Chemical Brothers! I have a quite varied taste in music! I am a huge fan of reading and writing, some of my favorites include Sartre, Tolstoy, J.D Salinger, Turgenev, the great Franz Kafka, Jean Ryes, Primo Levi, Nabokov, to name just a few. I studied psychology in college and have a lot of interest in the subject as well as philosophy. Favorite movies include Pulp fiction (I know it’s cliche but it’s a classsic), Waking Life, eternal sunshine of the spotless mind, fight club.
