About Me

"This is my way; where is yours?"--thus I answered those who asked me "the way." For the way--that does not exist.
-Friedrich Nietzsche

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm Couchsurfing because I like to learn about culture from a locals organically. The best way to get to know a place is to get to know the people who call that place home.

Interests

I love rock climbing, skiing, backpacking, mountain biking, and anything else that gets me outside. I also enjoy reading philosophy and literature.

Music, Movies, and Books

I mostly listen to hip-hop (Earl Sweatshirt, Mac Miller, Nas) and electronic music (Soulection, Koan Sound, Griz) but I appreciate good music from other genres.

I mostly watch action movies and comedies. Some of my favorites are Anchorman and the Borne series.

Dune (by Frank Herbert) is my favorite book although I really enjoyed the Game of Thrones series and the Reluctant Fundamentalist.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I traveled through Nepal, Thailand, and Bhutan for six months when I was 18.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I cook good breakfast (delivered to you in bed at a time of your choosing) and will do any other household chores with pleasure. I'm easy to get along with and love invigorating conversation. Also I usually travel with my climbing gear which I am happy to share.
