I am a recent college grad looking to explore the world. I have a love for adventure, and open mind, and a out going personality that gets me into some fun experiences.

I love to be healthy and I appreciate those who hold it to an importance as well. Being active, hiking, and eating well is something I like a lot.

That being said, I'll still be at the bar with you drinking beer until the early morning, but the rest of the time I'm relatively healthy haha.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I am about to embark on a 3 month back packing trip through Europe and Vancouver BC. I discovered this service through a podcast and it inspired me to check it out.

I hope to find some cool people, share my perspective, and view their home through the eyes of my host.

Music, Movies, and Books

I love a wide variety of music, but I'm currently into a style called "Lo-Fi Hip Hop". I grew up listening to classic rock, went through a face with post-hard core, listen to a lot of hip hop/r&b, and I like to get groovy with artists like Griz, the Floozies, and Gramattik.

As for movies, I love anything Tarantino, Fincher, and Soderbergh. I like film and videos as a medium so if its well shot and has a solid story line I'll probably watch it. If you haven't seen Get Out, go see it asap.

I'm currently reading a two part series called Shantaram/The Mountain Shadow. I don't read as much as I used to but back in the day I was a fiend for Harry Potter and the Eragon series. I love a good story.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Well I'm solo back packing around Europe for 3 months at the moment. But I'm the first man in my family to ever graduate college, I've logged around 1500 hours of Exterior House Painting, I've directed two short films, and I've sky dived in the Swiss alps.

Teach, Learn, Share

I have 3 years of self taught acoustic guitar I'd love to share with anyone looking to learn more. I'm also always looking to learn more about pretty much anything.

I went to school for Communication, specifically interpersonal relationships, so I have a pretty solid understanding on how relationships in every sense of the term work and function, as well as how to deal with problems in a relationship.

What I Can Share with Hosts

I can share a positive attitude, willingness and motivation to explore, and my solid library of personal adventures and stories. I like to think I have a great sense of humor so I'd love to share some laughs.
