Born and raised in Los Angeles. Despite having a well traveled family, I never bothered venturing outside the country until I was 23. Now I can't get enough of it.

Looking forward to many more years of seeing new place and meeting new people.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Have spent plenty of time in hostels. Despite them being a great place to meet people, they're not always great if you're looking to meet actual locals. Thought this would be a good way to really immerse myself while travelling.

Music, Movies, and Books

Music - I grew up with Hip-hop/rap and classic rock.
But I can listen to it all. From Lupe Fiasco to Vivaldi to Led Zeppelin to Stromae to Arcade Fire.

Movies - Went to film school so I do my best to watch anything and everything. Dark comedies are probably my favorite. Relatos Salvajes, Love Exposure (愛のむきだし), Burn After Reading are just a few.

Books -
Mother Night
The Book Thief
V.
White Oleander
This Side of Paradise

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Interned at a production office in Hollywood. Got to talk to Bruce Willis on the phone for a minute or two.

Teach, Learn, Share

Willing to help with any English learning as well.

What I Can Share with Hosts

Good conversation, some cooking and an open mind to learn anything you're willing to teach me.
