About Me

About me? I like to write, although I don't enough. I work in the film industry as a grip (a lot of people don't know what a grip is) in New York City. One day I'd like to direct my own scripts. Besides work, which takes up a majority of my time, I enjoy traveling and learning about different cultures. I am just beginning my voyage into photography and also learning the guitar. I like to watch sports, enjoy an ice cold beer/fine wine with a delicious meal(I also enjoy cooking). I'm a slightly introverted person but I try to be outgoing and have fun experiences! I am a friendly guy who can do anything from a great conversation to going out for a party or drinks.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I love to travel and I like the idea of staying with people that can show you a more authentic time in their country. I love connecting with people and sharing experiences/knowledge.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I pride myself in small acts of kindness and try to be positive to everyone I come across in the hopes it may rub of in some way. I have a lot of passions that are developing simultaneously and I hope that the amazing things are on the horizon.

Teach, Learn, Share

I'm good at solving problems. I can teach a number of things and I hope I learn something too!

What I Can Share with Hosts

A unique perspective of the world that permeates all my actions and defines who I am and hope that it resonates with everyone. My attitude towards life and people is one of openness and kindness. I'm easy going but sometimes meticulous, I consider myself to be a very aware person who knows the goals he has in life, but understands that they unfold over time and to enjoy the journey we call life. I've taken a broad spectrum of courses over the year of my education; I learned about how nuclear fission works and how a reaction can be contained, but I've also learned a lot about the arts- when I transferred to UConn I was a theatre major for a year, and had the desire to be a screenwriter, which they did not have....So, I switched to economics in the attempt to finish quickly and be done with school finally, although I must admit, I learned quite a lot and those two years influenced me greatly. I have also endured a few tragedies in my life that has impacted my appreciation for and drive in life. So what I have to share is what I've experienced and my views, and perhaps you can influence me as well!
