Hi! My name is Jon. I am a student at UC Berkeley. Will be traveling throughout Europe this summer!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I believe that learning about new cultural perspectives is one of the most fulfilling experiences someone can have. I look forward to sharing in that experience with people all over the world, and what better way to do that than by Couchsurfing?

Music, Movies, and Books

I am a huge fan of the Beatles, Grizzly Bear, Fleet Foxes, Dawes, Raphael Saadiq, Lianne La Havas, Kendrick Lamar, and a whole lot of jazz music.

My favorite of movie of all time is, admittedly, School of Rock lol.

I am currently making my way through the Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy saga - Douglas Adams was the man!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Well it's not really one thing, but I always feel a sense of accomplishment when I complete physically challenging backpacking trips/treks, since I injured my leg as a child and experienced permanent nerve and muscle damage, so it is always a feat of perseverance to make it through to the other side. If my own body can't hold me back, nothing can! :D

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm all for all three of these things haha
