Hey, my name is Jake :-) I'm 25, I love Philly, and I can't wait to see more of what it has to offer.

I'm an aspiring rapper (yes, I have bars). I am very passionate about it and I enjoy writing lyrics. I am a very political rapper, underground approach. My biggest influences are Danny Brown, Run the Jewels, and Deltron 3030. I'm very athletic and I try my best to stay in shape. I'm a beer connoisseur. I'm always trying a different draft with every pint. In general, I'm all about trying new things, experiences, new food, everything. It brings excitement to me.

I went to college for a Mathematics Degree with a concentration in Actuarial Science and Risk Management. I work in insurance underwriting. However, a job is a job. I'd rather be defined by my passions and my experiences than what I have to do to get by in a world ruled by dem money bags.

These are just the basics. If you want to know anything else, just let me know. I love fielding questions :-)

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

A cheap alternative to a hotel, but a rewarding experience in meeting new and interesting people. I always feel meeting new people with a lot to talk about helps me with my writing. It broadens my horizon. That's why I'm here.
