Hello! I'm Justin, 27 and i'm currently adventuring around Vietnam! I'm traveling around to get inspiration and become a "sponge" of life! To take in new sounds, sights, smells, colors and meet new people to enrich my art!

My hobbies are traveling and exploring, Photography and watching movies!

Travel is my blood.
My whole family works in the Airline industry. My dad is a pilot and my mom is a flight attendant (I was also conceived while traveling HA!) My grandma is even a flight attendant.

Filmmaking and photography are also my passions. I was freelancing as a cinematographer for 4 years in New York City and got my first film put on Netflix this year! Website: www.montgomeryimages.com

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

To meet and get to know the locals in the countries i'm traveling in!

I always feel like when I travel I have a semi-objective point of view on the world so I love getting the opportunity to points of view from everywhere around the world. I want to enrich my art with good conversation.
