Hi, my name is Jonathan. I'm an Engineering student at Lamar University in Beaumont, Tx.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Summer is just around the corner and I've accepted a position with an Engineering Company in Houston. I'm looking for a place to crash this summer. Tentatively from May through mid to late August. I'm scheduled to start work May 19, 2015 (Next Tuesday). I understand that this is an extended stay and I'm willing compensate on an agreed amount. I don't mind helping out around the house also.

Interests

I'm an open-minded individual and my interest vary accordingly. I'm really a big fan of the art scene here in Houston. I believe there's a lot of great things happening and so many interesting people. The Menil is one of my favorite museums. I frequent many coffee shops, you might catch me at Agora, Poison girl or Antidote. I don't go out much but when I do I like going to Barbarella's, sometimes boheme for drink. I really enjoy a good whiskey and I'm also a fan of red wine. On a typical Friday I might catch a movie, catch up on some sleep, or catch up with friends. It just depends on what the night calls for.

Music, Movies, and Books

I'm really big into music. I can listen to anything from classical to Rap. I listen to a lot of bands also. I really like Pink floyd, The knife, The cure, ..etc. Check out my playlist https://play.spotify.com/user/12100097813

Movies:
Some of my favorite movies include pulp fiction, City of God, Django unchained. I like a lot of foreign films also.

Books:
Most of the books I read are academic but I do enjoy reading lots of articles online and books in Spanish.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I wouldn't call it amazing but one time I saved a guy from drowning in sea of foam at south beach. If you've ever been to a foam party and had that stuff completely go over your head like I have ( I'm short at 5'5) then you'd know that it feels exactly like drowning. It's impossible to breath. I guess I was at the right place at the right time.

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm really good at math. I'm also pretty proficient at Spanish. I could teach you a few words.
