I grew up around different parts of the USA, finally settling in Cleveland. I have two cats and three dogs, all five of which are poorly behaved. My three big passions in life are, Music, Film and Food. Traveling is one of the true joys I find in my time orbiting the sun, and I try to get out of the state a few times a year. I also love stand up comedy.

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

I want a chance to visit cities I wouldn't normally get to see, and have an insider's point of view of whichever city I happen to visit

Música, películas y libros

I love Paul Thomas Anderson's creative body. Steve McQueen (the director, not actor) is another personal favorite. I also like the early work of Wes Anderson and the Cohen Brothers. I really enjoy Star Wars and other sci-fi work like that. I also hold Black & White films close to my heart, along with cheesy Westerns.

As far as books go, I love 1920's modernist literature, like Faulkner and Hemingway. I also really enjoy historical novels; authors like Robert Graves and Siegfried Sassoon. I really like Joseph Heller's Catch 22, James Joyce is another personal fave.

Music wise, I will listen to anything, as long as its good. I love the Velvet Underground, Bob Dylan, David Bowie, and anything Motown. Hip Hop however is where I place most of my listening time in

Algo increíble que he hecho

I've been a painter (fine arts) since I was a young child and have been in an art show in New York City!

Qué puedo ofrecer a los anfitriones

I can cook pretty well, I specialize in Cajun food (the food native to South Louisiana) and pretty much anything on the grill. I can tell pretty good stories if the circumstances call for it, ha ha.
