Hello, my name is Jacob! A young, curious, passionate individual from Washington, D.C. :). Traveling is such an important part of my life. There's something about finding others along the way that share similar passions and curiosities about life that keep me going!

My #1 passion is music, music from all over the world. I love food, wine, languages, and all the things that make life so enriching. I studied abroad in Marseille, France and spent a great amount of time in Beirut, Lebanon. I was able to travel all over Europe and part of North Africa and the Middle East.

I'm excited about joining this site. I am hoping to continue making great friendships around the world.

@jakecharriere is my Instagram.

Cheers!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I think this is a great way to meet local and interesting people - to have a true experience of a city. I like to share passions, experiences - this is what makes life great! I hope to become a host too (when I get my own place).
