I am an American living in Bavaria until November or December. I have family in Pfarrkirchen, where I am based. I would like to travel throughout the country and beyond. I have friends and family in Dortmund, Cologne, Berlin, Heidelberg and elsewhere. I am a creative professional, with a focus on filmmaking, photography, writing and acting. I speak only a little German, but am learning.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Basically, I'm on a modest budget and would like to see as much of Europe as I can. So, low cost accommodations are perfect for me. I also enjoy meeting people and learning about local culture etc. I recently joined Bla Bla Car and have enjoyed riding with people I've just met. I'm also considering moving to Europe for a longer period of time, so I'm networking with other professionals and people who may have a need for the type of work I do.
