Hey I'm Matt. I'm 24 years old and if there's one thing that I love more than traveling, it is getting to know people from all over the world. I have been lucky enough to visit some of the most beautiful places from Namibia to Budapest to Hong Kong, and it seems that everywhere I go I find amazing people with incredible stories.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I'm new to Couchsurfing. I've lost count of how many times people have suggested that I use Couchsurfing as a way to travel, so finally here I am! Also, I enjoy good company and new perspectives, which are ideals that I believe the couchsurfing community are based on.

Music, Movies, and Books

Paul Simon, Jack Johnson, Kendrick Lamar, ATCQ, Ray LaMontagne, Otis Redding, and James Taylor

I love to read! Lately I've been catching up on some George Orwell, but my favorites include Ishmael, The Alchemist, and A People's History of the United States.

I don't spend too much time watching movies, but I am a fan of anything by Iñarito, Christopher Nolan, or the Cohen Bros.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I have travelled around the world on a ship.

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm always trying to work on my languages. I can speak a little bit of Spanish and a tiny bit of Croatian.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I love to play guitar, albeit I only know the basics. I'm never shy for helping out around the house with cooking or cleaning and more than anything I enjoy sharing conversations.
