I am a 24 year old cartoonist and stand up comic living in sunnyside queens about 30 minutes outside of Manhattan. About a 15min walk to the 7 train. I have a day job working for the school of visual arts in Manhattan but I spend my free time making illustrations for Barnes and Noble. One day I want to make my own childrens book follow my exploits on instagram : gglindahl

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

I grew up traveling abroad in the airforce as a kid and want to have adventures. I want to meet local life and get some great illustrations for my travel journal.
This seems like a great way to really discover different cultures and make new friends. Im a visual journalist so I draw everything and then write about it.

Check out some of my illustrations http://grantdraws.com/

Algo increíble que he hecho

I think this is why I joined couch surfing because I want to do something amazing. I spend most of my time making art alone or trying to do standup.

I once jumped off a 30ft bridge in croatia, that was pretty cool.

Enseña, aprende, comparte

I can teach people how to draw with ink brushes and how to make cut paper art.

I want to learn how to speak spanish and how to cook your local foods.

Qué puedo ofrecer a los anfitriones
