From Boston, MA, USA looking to adventure around in Europe + beyond this spring.

My Origin Story: Born + bred in Massachusetts USA, I studied studied film + television in Boston and Los Angeles and have been working as a video editor + motion graphics designer since. This past summer I took a break from the digital world and worked as a farmer's apprentice on a 70 acre organic produce farm. I fell in love with being outside and met so many passionate people that I decided I couldn't go back to an office just yet...

I am also a musician. I am primarily a singer-songwriter/guitarist, but I can also play piano and will attempt to play anything with strings.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love to travel because I love meeting new people and learning about their lives and experiences, what makes them who they are. Couchsurfing was suggested to me as a great way to meet some cool folks while traveling on my own. I'm looking for a calm + friendly place to stay with nice people who can tell me where to find the best places to eat, drink, and be merry. Let's hang out!

Estoy buscando un lugar agradable para permanecer en calma + con gente linda que me puede decir dónde encontrar los mejores lugares para comer, beber y ser feliz -- :)

Interests

I love hiking + walking + being outside. I like yoga + stretching. I like good coffee and I like food - growing it, picking it, cleaning it, cooking it, sharing it. I love farmers markets, second-hand clothing shops, and handmade goods. I love laughing and I love people who make me laugh. I like talking. I try not to take life too seriously, which works about 75% of the time. I love art - especially music, visual media arts, illustration, photography. I like playing cards + board games (Settlers of Catan anyone?) I love relevant poems, the wisdom of elders!

Music, Movies, and Books

Music: Just put something on! I have been influenced by an early love of folk, americana, blues, jazz, and classic rock. I love watching people play guitar - classical, flamenco, electric. I love dancing to old soul, funk, electronic, and hip hop. I will pretty much give anything a shot, though I'm reluctant to turn on country or metal.

Some favorites: Radiohead, Joni Mitchell, Fleetwood Mac, Ben Howard, Anais Mitchell, The Smiths, Rubblebucket, Lisa Hannigan, Lykki Li, Feist, Magnetic Fields, Little Dragon, Bon Iver, Sharon Van Etten, St Vincent, Cat Power -- the list goes on...

Movies: Spielberg, Woody Allen, Alfonso Curón, bad 90s movies, good documentaries, heist movies, Pixar animations,
TV: Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Mad Men, The Wire, Parks & Recreation, The Walking Dead, 30 Rock, Lost, West Wing, Sopranos, Breaking Bad, Friends
** way too many to go over, but we can have some great movie/TV chats if you're into that sort of thing!

Books: Again, so many. I love books on psychology, philosophy, culture + identity, LGBT + women's issues. I love a good biography, thriller, or heart-wrenching love story.
