I'm Jack. A filmmaker and guitarist living in Seattle, Washington.

Travel, filmmaking, adventuring, deep talks and connecting with cool/interesting/daring people are my favorite things in life.

Down to teach you languages, swing-dancing, guitar... or just talk or walk around Seattle with you if I have time.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love and miss travel (excruciatingly so!) but at the moment am staying in Seattle because I'm working on a movie. I love knowing travelers, so I'm interested in trying out hosting for once. But my place is a studio, so maybe consider me as your last-resort lol (read the below section).

Even if not hosting, down to hang out, guide you around Seattle, maybe check out some fun nightlife or go for a hike. Choose your adventure :)

What I Can Share with Hosts

While I mostly just surf/travel, I would be possibly interested in hosting!

I live in a studio apartment near the space needle, with a kitchen, bathroom, really nice projector and screen for watching movies, and a pull-out couch for sleeping.

I have a car too, so if I have time we can drive somewhere, do a day-trip, etc.

Disclaimer: a studio is a studio, also I tend to wake up early as I work from home ... so come at your own risk haha
