I grew up in Texas but currently live in Los Angeles, California where I work as a video editor for a media company and make documentaries as my side passion. I'm friendly, open minded, and always down for an adventure but I also love lazy, relaxing days by the beach or at a park!

I love meeting other people who have life experiences very different from my own; it always makes for interesting conversation because there's so much to discover about the world and about life.

Furthermore, I like cats, existentialism, beer, walking places, smiling at strangers, ramen noodles, learning about stuff, chocolate, etc.

Let's have a beer or a cup of tea and chat about things? :P

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

What excites me most about going to new places is the chance to experience entirely new cultures, foods, and especially people! Making connections is a fundamental and significant part of what it is to be human. Although I'm a first time couch surfer, I'm sure that this will be a meaningful way to make friends around the world!

Interests

In my free time I love to horseback ride and hike! If I'm not doing those two things then you can probably find me exploring other parts of Los Angeles, hanging out at the beach, or curled up reading a book or watching a film.
