Overview
About Me
First time couchsurfer. I found out about it from my friend who has couchsurfed and hosted many people. I'm currently a college student, trying to find every opportunity I can to explore and travel. I'm also a freelance Recording Engineer. I'll record your next hit single/album lol.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I find it exciting being able to meet people from all over. To be able to make connections basically all over the world. I like sharing stories and love listening to other people's experiences. I believe life is about the journey and not the destination. It's about the the experiences and memories that you make. And couch surfing definitely helps facilitate that.
Interests
Music has always been my bread and butter. It's what I live for. I've also been getting more serious about photography. Specifically film photography. I like to go out to San Francisco and do street photography and capture moments that I feel are compelling. I'm all about telling stories through the pictures I take. I also really enjoy exploring whatever city I am in. I visited Chicago recently and fell in love with the city. I was out and about all day and night while I was there.

Music, Movies, and Books
My favorite book is Great Expectations by Charles Dickens. My favorite movie has to be between The Iron Gian, Lion King, or Wall E. It's the nostalgia feeling that gets me. My music taste varies quite a lot. I like Tony Bennett and Nat King Cole and Frank Sinatra. But I also really enjoy listening to really obscure and unknown bands like ten kens, slow hollows, and best buds. I used to listen to a lot of pop punk like the story so far, neck deep, state champs. I actually used to be in a band called Scoreboards and we played quite a lot of shows.
One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
I once played a show in a packed warehouse. It was raining like crazy and there were leaks on the roof everywhere. But people still went crazy and moshed and we got a giant circle pit going.
Teach, Learn, Share
I can show you my ever-growing record collection or how to play guitar, or the basics of photography. I can also show you me moving my ears like Alfalfa from the little rascals lol.
What I Can Share with Hosts
I can offer you my respect and gratitude for letting me stay at your place. I can also make a mean flan. I'll bake you a flan as a part of my gratitude :)
