Hi there! My name is Jaron, I'm a travelling Graphic and Web Designer who's looking for an agency position in the continental US. I'm currently looking for short-term places to stay and people to add to my ever-growing list of Notable Strangers.

Musik, Filme und Bücher

I'm constantly on the search for things that are lovingly crafted.

My musical tastes are perpetually expanding, but the artists I always find myself coming back to are:

--- Broken Social Scene, a band that overlayed over 200 audio tracks for a single song

--- The Books, a duo of classically trained musicians who play with recorded sound

--- Dosh, the severely overshadowed percussionist of Andrew Bird

I tend to remember movies by the intensity of goosebumps they give me. Exemplar moments include:

--- That final, cathartic, cathartic scene in Whiplash

--- The scenes where Jiro and Caproni meet in The Wind Rises

--- The part in Mad Max where all of these cars come out of nowhere to pursue them

Working in a bookstore throughout college has made me a voracious reader. Authors that really dig into me include:

--- Italo Calvino, and the dazzling whimsicality of If on a winter's night a traveler

--- Milan Kundera, and the playful philosophy of Life is Elsewhere

--- Celeste Ng, and the interwoven tragedy of Everything I Never Told You

Was ich mit Gastgebern teilen kann

My Couchsurfing abilities include:

--- Dishwashing
