Experienced traveler and couchsurfer! Pretty relaxed and generally fun person to be around (in my opinion). I spend a lot of my time in new cities just walking around and seeing the sights. I like to meet new people and talk with people from different cultures than my own. I'm a bartender at home so I love to try new bars, drinks and anything that has to do with the bar culture. Live music and a good drink makes for a good night for me!

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love the traveling community, and the instant connection with other travelers! I hope to use Couch Surfing to meet fun and interesting people and experience the true culture of the places I visit.

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

A few places while backpacking and staying in hostels in Europe for 6 months. What time I did surf I really enjoyed.

Music, Movies, and Books

It would take days to write everything down, so here's a basic summary:

Movies - EVERYTHING. There are very few movies I won't watch, but a few favorites are Fight Club, Lord of the Rings (all) & anything with Robert Downy JR or Zach Galifianakis.

Music: My music preference changes like the weather in Scotland. One day it's Brand New, the next its Coolio. Back home my circle of friends listen to Avett Bros., Mumford, Bon Iver, Talking Heads, TV on the Radio etc. The only music I don't like is country...

Books: travel books, Fantasy Epics, Humorous biographies.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done
