My name is Jake, and I’m traveling with my partner(Emily) through the month of September! We are starting Paris and traveling south through France, then looping back through Spain and Western France back to Paris early October.

I am 25 and have seen Europe once before; I traveled for 4 months and saw Germany, France, Spain, Hungary, and Czech Republic(now Czechia!).

My partner is 27 and hasn’t been outside of the states yet, so this is a big first trip for her!

We are vegan and cook for ourselves so there’s no need to provide food for us, unless you’d like to or want to learn some vegan cooking:~)

Emily is a brilliant film photographer that is looking to continue taking portraits of people that catch her eye, and I’m an aspiring whoknowswhat(I like a lot of things but haven’t managed to find my passion in the same way she has been able to, but trying to find it everyday!)

Por qué estoy en Couchsurfing

Música, películas y libros

Blues, hip hop, soul, disco, pop, jazz, funk- we want to hear it all!
I love movies and can delve into plots and themes all day long but it doesn’t hold Emily’s attention for long😂
We read sparingly but love to!

Algo increíble que he hecho

Spent 4 months on a shoestring budget abroad and somehow lived to tell the tale(it was all thanks to people’s incredible ability to give and be welcoming to me even though they didn’t know me!)
