I hate this question. I guess I can say the standard things:

I like to travel
I like learning new things
I really enjoy eating and cooking
I like meeting new people
Going to as many concerts as possible

I'm a really relaxed guy, and I really get along with just about every kind of person and like to have a good time. I know that's very typical to say, but it's the truth; it's something I pride myself on. I can't sit still, but I hate being busy. I'm the most indecisive person most people have ever met. I'm an over achiever, yet could care less about mostly everything I do, which makes no sense to me or any one else. I've been told that I have a large personality, I still don't know what that means. I have too much energy for myself sometimes. A day doesn't go by that I'm not gripped by an overwhelming sense of awkwardness. I lose things almost immediately. I'm always cold. always. I tend to stress myself out over very insignificant things and remain extremely apathetic about the largest of problems. I cant stand silence for periods longer than one minute. I have an unbelievable amount of conflicting personality traits. I'm annoyed by extremely dumb things like small paperback books and when people wear pleated pants. I can find a valid excuse for almost everything I do. I hate anything fat free or diet. I've learned that my life only makes sense when I'm in school and football is on.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Doing whatever I can to make people feeling comfortable. It's always a strange feeling being disconnected from everyone around you when you're traveling so it's nice to pick up a friend.

I Couched surfed around Italy, Spain, Germany and France, for a couple of months and had a great time. Met so many wonderful people it was insane. It was great meeting so many amazing people while traveling alone, as I wasn't stuck to drinking alone. Meeting up for aperitivos in Milano, concerts in Nice, house parties in Barcelona. Can't get much better than that!

Interests

LOVE music, probably more than anything in the world. I spend most of my time listening to/learning/playing/collecting it. I go to as many concerts and shows as I possibly can. I'm told I talk too much about it haha. I also waste way too much time reading and watching movies. I get way too much of a kick out of talking about books, and movies, and music, and food to an obsessive extent. I'm a big writer too. I'm a foodie (fat ass at heart really) and I like to try new foods as often as possible. Anything outdoors related is fun too. I generally bike everywhere when it's not crazy cold or rainy. In general I'm a big fan of just hanging out with anyone doing just about anything. That sentence doesn't make much sense. Oh well. And of course, as any young man I like to party and have a good time. I try to make even the dullest of things fun so I always a have good time no matter what. I'm always up for going out on the town and tearing it up. After all somebody's got to, so it might as well be me.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I've had lunch with Bob Dylan. Easily the greatest thing that's ever happened and will ever happen to me.

Teach, Learn, Share

Well I've been told that I make the best BBQ in the world. Many times. I even have awards. So I could teach you how to grill southern style.
I have a ridiculous amount of pop culture knowledge. Not useful for much but should you need an extra person in trivia, I'd be your man.
I play a variety of instruments (all poorly) but I know the basics, enough to make people believe I'm good :)
I'm learning to be a tailor right now because I don't have anything better to do, so I could hem your pants or take in a jacket or I could show you how to do it.
