I'm Andrew. It's hard to put yourself into a little text box.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am on Couchsurfing because of the incredible experiences and beautiful people that it brings into your life. I am always wishing I could be traveling. With Couchsurfing, I am able to bring the experience of being abroad into my home. I love meeting people with different cultures, viewpoints, and opinions. CouchSurfing has shown me the beauty of human connection and how far a little bit of effort goes.

Interests

I spend my time trying to experience as much as possible. I love trying new things: new places, new people, new food, etc.

I really enjoy photography and taking pictures. Setting up a picture and finding the right composition for a photo are really intriguing to me. Photography challenges me to look at things in a different way.

I also like doing yoga. Yoga for me is the one time during the week/day/(insert time period here) that I get to let it all go. It's a great exercise and it encourages mindfulness in many different senses.

I enjoy meditation as well. Meditation lets me practice my attention span muscle which currently needs some strengthening.

I'm also a productivity geek. I love my Mac and I use it to keep my life in order. I use lots of different apps to make my life easier, let's chat about best practices!

Music, Movies, and Books

I consider music one of the most important things in my life. I love music. There isn't a certain genre of music that I am most fond of, I respect it all. Music is a universal language and I love conversing in it. I always find myself going to concerts or festivals as often as possible. I try to go to at least 3 conerts a month just to keep myself sane. Any genre goes! Music is a very important part of my life and I love hearing about new artists. Follow me on Spotify! Let's jam out to some of your tunes.

I thoroughly enjoy books as well. I recently bought a Kindle and it is absolutely amazing. I'm not one of those paper books purists (although, I love the feeling of a real book).

I love movies. I love the way a movie can whisk you away to another time and place. I love Netflix and Amazon Prime Instant Video. Documentaries, drama, and comedy are typically what you'll find me watching.
