Heyo, I’m Joey.

Outgoing introvert who enjoys the small things in life 🌅
More of a journey than destination person 🛤️
I’ll try most anything twice ✔️✔️

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Community. As a nomad, I want to have and provide genuine hospitality, authentic connections, and gentle yet real experiences.

Music, Movies, and Books

My music taste is like me—nomadically all over the place. Some of my current top listened to artists: fletcher, Paramore, Kacey Musgraves, blackbear, Machine Gun Kelly, Julia Michaels, P!nk, Avril Lavigne… and Taylor Swift 🤦

I’m a huge film lover, both blockbuster and independent. I’ll watch anything with Reese Witherspoon, Julia Roberts, or Jessica Chastain at least once.

My book tastes are a mix between Jane Austen, Agatha Christie, the children’s section in barns & noble, and smut. Have I become my grandmother???

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Gotten this far in life 🤙

And if you didn’t like that answer:

-Biked across the entire island of Aruba, lighthouse to lighthouse (easier than you’d think) 🏝️

-Stood on a pile of 85,306 potatoes in the "Potato Capital of the World” (cooler than you’d think) 🥔

-Visited an “unincorporated community census-designated place” near the U.S. Mexico border (more memorable than you’d think) 🔮

Teach, Learn, Share

Teach:
LGBTQ History, obscure useless film industry facts; pretty much nerdy stuff.

Learn:
I’m a slut for life stories. I like learning most things about most people, almost everywhere. I want to learn to see the world through your eyes.

Share:
Life experiences that shape core values and identity. The quiet moments that stitch lives together.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I’m tidy, enjoy clean-up after a shared meal, and am easily adaptable 🤟
