ABOUT ME

I am a relaxed and easy going guy. I like adventures and doing new stuff.
Good food is my favorite thing. I like red wine. I like gin. I've recently become addicted to coconut water, a new thing for me.

I want to do something special with my life, but I find it's not easy to do.

Right now I am living in Asheville, NC. Cooking a restaurant part time and also working on an art business called Vetruvia: https://www.instagram.com/vetruvia/

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

HOW I PARTICIPATE IN COUCHSURFING

I need to do it more.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Only once it Philly and it was a great time. I also had a friend who hung out with a couchsurfer from Japan. He had hitchhiked from Canada down to NC. Was able to organize some basketball in London on the site too.

Interests

My interests include hiking and backpacking. I backpacked the John Muir Trail and it was life changing. I also have started home brewing, although havnt really made any great beer yet.... I like to bike, I like to learn and I like to explore.

I'm also really into cities. I think they are fascinating and I want to work somewhere in the field of urban planning.

I like to talk about philosophy, the way things are, big picture stuff. I think the world doesnt really talk as much about the big picture stuff as it should.

Music, Movies, and Books

I am more into TV shows then movies. I like Breaking Bad, The Wire, The Sopranos.
I like pretty much all kinda of music. But I am more into indie stuff

Books...Really like to read. Never enough time to read as much as I want. I went through a dystopian phase where I really enjoyed 1984 and Brave New World but that was when I was in the teenage "the worlds going to hell" part of life. Really like Zen and the Art of Motorcycle maintenance, fascinating look into the mind of a fascinating individual.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've camped in cities a few times which is always a rush. Camp meaning just finding a place to sleep, never actually with a tent. Once on a roof, once in Central Park, once in an office lobby, once in a hammock underneath a bridge. You usually dont sleep that well but it makes you appreciate a roof.

Lots to teach, but doesnt everyone?
