Hi! My name's Jonathan, and I'm a student trying my hardest to major in math and economics at a liberal arts college in Massachusetts. I'm originally from Houston, TX, but decided to go up north for college so I could experience some nice change in weather and escape intense heat. I'm a sociable person who loves to meet new people and travel, and I enjoy taking lots of photos and making occassional vlogs of my travels too! (https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCymgFDnH3qST7FJZYhnUepg/) I like exploring urban areas, but also enjoying being around nature and exploring natural parks. I love being able to make people laugh and engaging in conversations that hopefully turn into friendships. And I am a Leo, and gay.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love meeting new people and hearing more about their own lives as I venture through my own. Couchsurfing sounds like an awesome way to explore new areas while also connecting with others, and I am hopeful that I can meet some great people along the way and keep in touch with them. This summer, I am hoping to do a lot of fun traveling domestically before I go abroad next year to Europe next year! And I wanna get to travel the world before this planet becomes uninhabitable

Music, Movies, and Books

I'm such a pop culture fanatic. I use a different friends' HBO, Hulu, and Netflix account, so I binge lots of shows: Game of Thrones (started binging December 2018), Veep, Westworld, Insecure, High Maintenance, Big Little Lies, Pose, American Horror/Crime Story, Scandal, How to get Away with Murder, Rupauls Drag Race, Broad City,... (I actually don't know how I have time for all of this)

I also have a wide taste in music and enjoying discovering new tunes. My favorite genres have to probably be R&B, alternative pop, and female rap. And I gotta stay loyal to Beyoncé and Rihanna. I haven't been able to do some leisurely reading in a while now because of schoolwork (and I guess with all the TV I watch), but this summer, I have a list of books that I do actually want to read thoroughly!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I went to this amazing, breathtaking national park in China called Zhangjiajie (where they filmed Avatar!) and they have this beautiful glass bridge that overlooks the gorges and I ran across because I was scared I was gonna fall through...
