I'm a 25 year-old guy with a dog who likes Rock-Climbing and playing music (I sing, play guitar and piano). I'm a little bit of a cinephile, and in DC I like to see films in the movie house at Mnt. Pleasant, see comedy down in Dupont or see live music/podcasts down at the wharf. I can cook pretty well, as my step father was a gourmet French chef and taught me a thing or two. Right now I'm living in Alexandria at a location very close to the D.C. Metro - which is great for getting anywhere you need to go in the DMV area without a car.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Right now I'm checking this app out in preparation for a two week trip to Paris. Also, I just moved to Alexandria and don't really know the area yet.

Teach, Learn, Share

I used to teach guitar for a living, so I can always help someone out with musical endeavors.

I'd like to learn better cooking skills...and also how to take proper care of my plants.

I'll share my Climbing gym membership - I get plenty of guest passes and love taking people climbing/bouldering with me.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Drinks on me obviously, good movie recommendations and I'll sing for you.
