The power of video is fascinating to me, even scary.

It can make you laugh or cry. Sing or speak. Think or drown out the world. Remember - or forget.

Every day, I can see the world around me decay in some ways but blossom in others. Let's link the people of the world arm in arm using video to banish hate. I think in a way we're all neighbors. If everyone can understand that, we'll all do better to each other.

Oh also seriousness aside, I would self identify as a pretty silly guy. I make some inappropriate bathroom jokes from time to time, invented a new language based on English called "Slormux", and made silly youtube videos with my friends when I was young https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dIrqzmbpCOI.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm traveling with my girlfriend through Asian making exciting goofy videos for Facebook and Youtube, and want to highlight problems and share the different ways of life in Asia to the rest of the world.

We're brand new so we don't have a YouTube/Facebook channel yet. However, here's some stuff I've done in the past:

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I filmed and edited a movie about 2 hungry guys fighting over an apple in a single day. It gets really intense and one of them shoots the other with a banana at the end.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can hang out and have a good time. Also I can teach about the basics of making movies (filmmaking). We can even make a small little movie together if you'd like! It's good fun.
