I've been on the road living and working abroad for most of my 20s. I have an art practice that I have been working on while living abroad for the past few years. I am an avid outdoorsman, enjoying climbing, hiking and camping. I like to draw, read, play the guitar and charango, and have a good conversation.

I like thinking about the world and how it works. I love meeting interesting people.

Warum ich bei Couchsurfing bin

This seems like a really cool way to meet new people and see the places that I visit a bit differently. I think that it will let me interact a little bit more on my journey.

Musik, Filme und Bücher

Music:
Bon Iver, Vancouver Sleep Clinic, Balmorhea, anything accoustic really. I like classical music, and modern classical music. I like rap too...actually I like all forms of music.

Eine tolle Erfahrung, die ich gemacht habe

Last year I got a grant to make a film about rock climbing in South Korea. It was the first film that I had ever made that was shown at a real movie-theatre. That was pretty neat.

Lehren, lernen, teilen

I can teach you about photography "stuff", I would love to go out climbing with you and show you some different safety systems, knots, and how to belay!

Was ich mit Gastgebern teilen kann

I am tidy, respectful and fun! I love a good conversation and I would love to cook you a meal!
