I live in Philadelphia, PA, where I am a fine artist and woodworker. I've had this account for a while but am only lately getting the interest in using it!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Hoping to see the world, on the cheap, and meet people with viewpoints and experiences I'd never imagined.

I've done a fair amount of traveling but I am realizing that only staying in hostels is a closed world and I want to get to know others

Interests

In America I am an artist and a woodworker. When I travel I like to make friends and stay up talking, see beautiful places, and learn about myself.

Music, Movies, and Books

I love to be there when people play music and am always willing to sing along.
I read a lot of books on history and social studies and am always trying to learn about how people and politics really work.
I like low budget homemade movies from all over the world.
