Why I'm on Couchsurfing
COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE Met up with some friends who were couchsurfing in San Francisco and stayed with a nice lady. Also got to go to Northern Spain and stayed with a really cool guy. I had an extra ticket to a music festival, so we went to that. We got to ride bikes around the city and he told me all about the history of the architecture there since he was working on a master's degree in architecture. It was really awesome! I also couchsurfed with a friend in Morocco. We were welcomed by a really nice family who had a son our age who spoke English and showed us around. His mom cooked the best food!
Music, Movies, and Books
Anything that makes me think. That or silly and stupid stuff like A Night at the Roxbury or Nacho Libre (need to keep things balanced, ya know?). Watching movies is pretty much a serious hobby for me. My all time favorite movie is Planet of the Apes (original). Live music is the best. I really love mo-town and soul from the 60s and 70s. I could dance to that forever. And old school punk--as far as I'm concerned The Clash is the best band there ever was. Currently, I'm reading The Alchemist by Paulo Coelho. I really enjoy Bukowski and science fiction. There's tons of stuff I like.
One Amazing Thing I've Done
Uhh... I once lifted a bear bare-handed. No, I kid. I actually did that to a goat. But really, I once climbed/harmlessly trespassed down a cliff by the Golden Gate bridge at night and beheld the wonder of the edge of the Western world. We also found a crab and released it back into the ocean.
My Interests
Smells, laughing, puns, quiet moments, loud music, considerate people, reading, the way the sky looks during twilight, and water. I love appreciating simple things and soaking in every moment. Luckily, I can do these things everywhere.
