CURRENT MISSION

To create something Im proud of

ABOUT ME

I am a straight, no pets and consider myself to be a clean person. I know I come off initially as a quiet guy but love to meet and talk to new people. I can be kind of goofy too if you ask anyone. I like to drink socially, if I was home by myself I'd maybe have one beer. But when Im out I like to have a couple and (responsibly obviously).

PHILOSOPHY

I try to find happiness without denying others theirs. I am a living version of the Declaration of Independence.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I feel that getting to know people is a great way to get an idea for a city. I am outgoing and try to make myself an open book. I also hope to find my new home and be able to share my place whenever needed.

Interests

My recent job is F/X compositor but I still have a lot to learn to call myself an expert. Its primarily a means to an end right now since my first love is art and animation. I have an art degree from a California school. I love almost every genre of music but I cant really call myself a true aficionado. I love to read and have written a couple of short stories just for the hell of it. My dream is to develop my own series either an animated show or write for TV.

The only TV I watch are some sports and 1 or 2 weekly shows. If ever was forced to choose I would get rid of TV before I disconnect the internet tho. I prefer reading, drawing, listening to music or playing video games. Also I will do a basic workout at home or go for a run a few times a week.��

Music, Movies, and Books

I recently read Great Expectations, funny. I also like Sci-Fi and I used to be into horror.

My taste in movies is very similar, my favorite are comedies but Hollywood has been lacking in truly funny movies in my opinion. I love almost anything animated since I routinely gain inspiration. I am into Docs and period films lately. Sci-fi and horror are also fun to me too. I will enjoy the occasional drama when called upon.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Something that jumps out right away is when I won a rock climbing trip to Joshua Tree in California. I remember looking up in the sky with no city lights anywhere and seeing the real night sky for the first time, it brought a tear to my eye.

Also flying in a plane for the first time, it was quite humbling. I wasnt scared but just realizing I was putting my life directly in someone elses hands was eye opening.
