Overview
About Me
Hello fellow humans! I'm currently on my 24th trip around the Sun and am living as a traveling nomad across the United States and eventually South America + the rest of the world. There's just too many things on our tiny planet to see, and I plan on seeing a majority of them!
I grew up in Las Vegas which has been an interesting place to live, but I have definitely fallen in love with the rest of the world. There are just too many amazing people to meet to stay in one place, you know? I work as a freelance videographer, photographer, illustrator, graphic designer, and writer. Basically, as long as it's art, guarantee I love it.
Why I’m on Couchsurfing
I think Couchsurfing is super rad because it's a real experience of the places you're going to. It's not a manufactured hotel room that cuts you off from the world. Real connection, that's what's important in life. And that's why I'm on here. I think human relationships are the most valuable thing a person could have. To me, a stranger is just a potential lifelong friend who could end up at your wedding sometime in the future.
Music, Movies, and Books
I'm a pretty avid reader so these are some of my favorite books: Into the Wild, Lord of the Rings, Ishmael, Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy, Tao te Ching, A Tear at the Edge of Creation
Music - I listen to everything! There was a year I went to 12 electronic music festivals, that was pretty wicked. Vivaldi is my favorite composer. I listen to a lot of film scores too, it brings you right back to the emotions you felt during a particular scene. Hip-Hop, Jazz, Indie, you name it. Show me some of your favorite tunes--
Teach, Learn, Share
Want to know how to edit video? I've got you.
Or maybe we can discuss some literature, write a screenplay together, or just go find and photograph some of the world's endless beauty. I'm up for all of it!
What I Can Share with Hosts
I can tell one hell of a story, share some of my fantastic philosophies on living a fulfilled life, or if you need any professional creative work done - I'm your guy!
Conversation and creation, in a nutshell.
