Overview
About Me
I'm currently on a two year trans-American motorcycle road trip from US to Argentina and back to Brasil. In the past, I've spent weeks backpacking in Europe and 4 years living out of an ambulance van around North America.
I love to explore the world and can bring a fun take to any situation. I've traveled as much as I can since college and becoming free. Why take life so seriously -- we're all here to enjoy it :) I've loved meeting amazing people in my travels and am super excited to meet more!
I am generally down to do just about anything and anywhere: check out cool cafes, talk about life, get drinks, go on hikes, explore museums, walk around, swim, adventure, etc etc etc -- there's too much to say. Meeting people is amazing and I love to have a conversation and broaden my perspectives on life, and I hope that I can provide that same feeling to others. I love photography and am currently working on a vlog.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
There are so many amazing people on this world :) Some of my favorite things in this world are having meaningful conversations and thrilling adventures! Let's share our love of this world!!
Of course, I travel budget too. Nowadays on my motorcycle, I'll camp out in a tent in the great outdoors most times, but sometimes it helps to have a roof in a city. I always carry a sleeping bag with me and have extremely low standards for accommodation, so I would be perfectly happy to sleep anywhere on the floor even if its a tight spot and would greatly appreciate the kind help.

Music, Movies, and Books
I love all music, but something about the blues always strums my soul. Current favorite bands are Ren, Eric Clapton, King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard.
I carry an E-ink reader and hit the books when I can. Currently I've been a fan of social commentaries, biographies, and novels. Current read is Born a Crime by Trevor Noah.
I usually pick movies by the director or recommendations from friends in the film industry. Some of my favorites are: Lord of the Rings, Up, Fight Club, La La Land, CODA, Good Will Hunting, Shaun of the Dead. Favorite directors are: Wes Anderson, David Fincher, Damien Chazelle, Steven Spielberg, Edgar Wright, Hayao Miyazaki.

Teach, Learn, Share
We are all students in this world :) I'm happy to share whatever I know, from board games, technical knowledge, outdoor skills, physics and science, personal struggles, music, and more. Likewise, I'm happy to learn anything at anytime. My world view is constantly expanding. Let's share knowledge!
I have a harmonica with me and know how to play guitar and certain African drums. A music jam session would make my heart complete.
I also have a DSLR and GoPro with me. Happy to assist in taking some artsy photos or videos for your use however you want :)
And I always carry some Chinese tea with me :) I love everything about tea.
