About Me

Hello there!

I'm Brandon, an energetic and imaginative actor / bartender / handyman from living in New York City! When not on the grind trying to make make it big in the big apple, I'm starting to cast my eyes globally, and find where in the world i can explore on the cheap!

I see life as a beautiful and exciting adventure. I want to see as many places, meet as many people, and learn as many things as I can. Life is short. Life is beautiful.

My normal NYC life consists of longboarding around the city auditioning for acting work, acting, bartending, voiceover, handyman work, time with friends (talking, drinking, playing games, hosting parties, etc), acting class, and just generally enjoying the go go go life of NYC.

I love to listen. I love to learn. I love humans and I believe in humanity. Dream the Impossible Dream my friends. :)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I think the reason I was drawn to acting is my love of people and my love of adventure. Couchsurfing is a wonderful way to combine the two loves!

Living in New York City, I have the opportunity to host people from all around the world! Being a couchsurfer, I get to not just see different places in the world, but I get to experience different locales with different locals. (See what a did there?)

For me, traveling is just about seeing new places, its about experiencing new cultures, hearing new stories, and making new friends. I'd rather have a couch to sleep on with a new person to exchange stories with than a fancy hotel on my own.
